The updated 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (“DGA”) were released on January 7, 2026 by the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services and Agriculture.  While the Guidelines do not carry the force of law, they exert substantial influence in shaping federal procurement standards (e.g., school meals and SNAP benefits), nutrition labeling and marketing regulations, and the factual baseline used in consumer product litigation.
