Regarding saturated fat, question 5 was answered using the NHLBI systematic review and related AHA/ACC Guideline on Lifestyle Management to Reduce Cardiovascular Risk, which focused on RCTs, as well as existing SRs and MA addressing this question published in peer-reviewed literature between January 2009 and August 2014. Particular emphasis was placed on reviews that examined the macronutrient replacement for saturated fat. (Scientific Report of the 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee, p. 332)

NOTE: ACC = American College of Cardiology; AHA = American Heart Association; CHD = coronary heart disease; CVD = cardiovascular disease; DGAC = Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee; DM = diabetes mellitus; HF = heart failure; HTN = hypertension; LNCSB = low- or no-calorie sweetened beverage; MA = meta-analysis; MI = myocardial infarction; NHLBI = National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute; RCT = randomized controlled trial; SR = systematic review; SSB = sugar-sweetened beverage.

a The Scientific Report of the 2020 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee indicated that they used content from 16 existing systematic reviews, but from reviewing the 2020 DGAC systematic reviews reports only these 11 were identified as being updated existing systematic reviews.

SOURCE: This table was created based on the committee’s interpretation of information presented within the individual systematic reviews.

This midcourse report provides an initial assessment of how the process used to develop the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025 (DGA) compares to the recommendations in the 2017 National Academies report on redesigning the process for establishing the DGA. It also assesses the criteria and processes for including the scientific studies used to develop the guidelines. The scope of this study was to address the process and not the content of the guidelines.
