Speak Up for Dietary Equity in U.S. Nutrition Guidelines!
Submit this model comment to urge the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans make healthier diets equitable for all people!
Nearly two of every three people in the United States live with at least one chronic disease like obesity and heart disease, according to the CDC.
These are caused in part by poor diets.
Unhealthy eating is now the top cause of premature death in the nation. Latino and other families of color are disproportionately impacted by nutrition-related diseases. This leads to over-consumption of unhealthy food and higher rates of obesity.
Achieving health equity through the Dietary Guidelines for Americans—the leading set of nutrition recommendations for people and public health professionals—is paramount. We must bring healthier diets within reach of all populations.
Sorry, we're not targeting any representatives in your district. But, you can still help!
