The honest food guide empowers consumers with independent information about foods and health Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Now, the honest food guide doesn't seem to have anything like that. It's more like the old food pyramid in that it looks like it should apply to everyone. Why would the USDA emphasize personalizing your food consumption? Mike: They claim it's personalized, but no matter what you chose, it still says three cups of milk a day. So it's the illusion of being personalized. It is true that different people need different quantities of food. You know, a 120-pound female needs a lot less food than a 200-pound male. This is common sense.

I poured those 5,000 hours into the creation of this honest food guide. That's my background for understanding these cause-and-effect relationships. Your average doctor has spent 60 minutes. That is unbelievable. It shouldn't be allowed in this country. They shouldn't be allowed to practice medicine. Ben: What do you think is the main reason people are more predisposed toward the diseased side of this pyramid, even those who truly know what is more healthy for them and what foods are going to benefit them? Mike: This is the big challenge. That's an excellent question.

I'm here with Ben Kage, and we're going to have a discussion and Q&A session about the honest food guide. For those of you who aren't familiar with it, it is available for free downloading at HonestFoodGuide.org. You can download it, and take a look at and learn quite a bit about nutrition and food recommendations from various sources. So thanks for joining me today, Ben. Ben: Thanks for joining me too. Mike: This is the first time you've seen the guide yourself, and I understand that you have some questions? Ben: Yes. This is the first time I've seen the guide.

The old pyramids say you should eat more of this or less of this because we say so. The honest food guide actually lists specific drawbacks and benefits. Mike: That's a good point. That's the other thing that's unique about this food guide. It tells you not only what you should consume, but it gives you the benefits. For example, we talk about avocados, and avocados are really healthy foods even just eaten raw. In fact, raw is preferable. Ben: Despite some newsmedia attention that says avocados promote cholesterol. Mike: Oh yeah, there is so much ridiculous information out there.

It doesn't give people the information they need, and I believe this honest food guide chart is one of the few that actually does. There's another one out there that I know of that's pretty good; I think it's called the Healing Food Guide. It's good as well. I encourage people to check out this information from several different sources. You'll find that you keep hearing the same truths over and over again. You should avoid certain foods and you should consume certain foods if you want to be healthy. You'll hear that there's a recipe for health and there's a recipe for disease.

So, with this new food pyramid out, why would anyone need to follow the honest food guide or even look at it? Mike: Excellent question. The first part of that answer is that this is a replacement chart for the USDA's official food guide pyramid, and as most people know, in the spring of 2005, the USDA came out with a new food guide to replace the old food groups/food guide pyramid that had been around for decades. But what most people don't know is that the USDA paid $2.

Just a few years ago, most consumers had never heard of trans fats or the dangers of hydrogenated oils, for example. But once that issue went mainstream, fast food restaurants all over the country announced changes to avoid hydrogenated oils.

Download the honest food guide, free! The U.S. Department of Agriculture currently pretends to offer objective, consumer-oriented nutritional advice through its well-known food guide pyramid. However, a bit of research into this subject shows that the food pyramid was actually constructed with the help of food industry giants. Not surprisingly, the food guide pyramid has more to do with pleasing the influential food lobbyists than providing useful nutritional advice to the U.S. public. Since there is such a gap in this knowledge, I decided to create my own chart called The honest food guide.

Let's have an honest food guide that we can get into their hands, which can really show them the foods that cause disease and the foods that promote health. Better yet, let's have this created by somebody who has no ties whatsoever to the food industry. That would be somebody like me, although it doesn't have to be me. Believe me, I don't want this to be about me. I want this to be about the nutrition. Somebody needs to do this, and I just didn't see anybody doing it. People need to be able to make good choices.

In fact, I've come up with one called, "The Honest Food Guide", found on HonestFoodGuide.org. We should have our own system, where we actually teach people how to be healthy. Then we should have our own society, where our children aren't labeled ADHD, where they don't get doped up on heavy narcotics just to attend school, where people live long lives and don't have huge medical bills, and where we don't have corruption and collusion between the USDA and the food companies that just want to sell overpriced, low nutritional density foods to a population in order to make money.
