WASHINGTON, April 3, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee presented evidence-based recommendations to the Departments of Agriculture and Health and Human Services in February 2015.

The Federal government will determine how it will use the information in the Advisory Report as it develops the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. HHS and USDA will jointly release the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2015 later this year.
