New US dietary guidelines include recs for babies and toddlers for first time

Updated December 30, 2020

What's missing

缺少了什么

The guidelines don't touch on the topic of red meat -- a major supplier of saturated fat in the American diet and a huge player in the argument over food sustainability and environmental impact. And the new guidance doesn't say much about processed foods.

指南并未涉及红肉，红肉是美国饮食中饱和脂肪的主要来源，也是食品可持续性及环境影响争议的主要问题。新指南对加工食物并未提到多少。

Instead, the guidelines suggest replacing processed or high-fat meats, like hot dogs, sausages and bacon, with seafood or beans, peas and lentils to meet protein recommendations. They also suggest that the majority of meat and poultry a person consumes should be fresh, frozen or canned, and in lean forms, like chicken breast or ground turkey, rather than processed meats like ham or other deli meat.

然而，指南建议以海鲜或豆子、豌豆和小扁豆代替热狗，香肠或培根等加工过的或高脂肪肉类来满足推荐的蛋白质摄入。指南还建议，人们食用的大部分肉类和家禽应该是新鲜的、冷冻的或罐装的瘦肉，比如鸡脯或火鸡绞肉而不是加工过的肉类，比如火腿或其它熟食肉。

Overall, the guidelines feel old-fashioned and very similar to those released in 2015, said nutrition researcher Marion Nestle, who has authored numerous books on food politics and marketing, including 2015's "Soda Politics: Taking on Big Soda (and Winning)."

营养研究员马里昂·奈斯特(Marion Nestle)说，总的来说，这些指南感觉有点过时，与2015年发布的指南非常相似。奈斯特写过许多关于食品政治与营销的书籍，包括2015年的《汽水政治:与大汽水竞争(并获胜)》。

"They've also hidden or diminished the importance of the main food sources of sugar, saturated fat and salt," said Nestle, who is the Paulette Goddard professor emerita of nutrition, food studies and public health at New York University.

“指南还隐藏或削弱了糖、饱和脂肪和盐等主要食物来源的重要性。” 纳斯特说，他是纽约大学保莱特·戈达德营养学、食品研究和公共卫生名誉教授。

And apparently the main food to avoid if you want to limit your salt and saturated fat intake? Sandwiches.

如果你想限制盐和饱和脂肪的摄入量，那么你应该避免的主要食物是什么呢？三明治。

"'Ultraprocessed' is the new way of talking about foods that should not be consumed regularly or in large amounts — tons of evidence has come in within the last five years," Nestle said.

奈斯特表示，“超加工”是我们谈论不应该经常或者大量食用的食物的新方式，在过去五年，已有很多证据。
