The US Center for Public Interest (CSPI) has deemed the Trump administration’s attempt to Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) to be misleading, claiming it is not based on science for a healthy diet, but may be rather harmful for consumers and increases the risk of diet-related chronic disease. A statement from the organization contends that MAHA uses “misguided” and “downright cruel” policies. CSPI points to the federal initiative’s recommendations of consuming full-fat dairy, red meat, and beef tallow, which disregard science-backed nutrition recommendations.
