肯尼迪和罗林斯在活动中介绍了政府新膳食指南的推出进展,该指南于1月公布。在周三的活动中,包括泰森在内的几位发言人谈到了超加工食品的危害,以及让美国人转向食用天然食物的必要性。
“我们把几百页的膳食指南精简到大约六页,但核心就三个字:吃真正的食物,”肯尼迪在活动结束时对人群说,“我请求大家从今天开始这样做,如果你还没开始的话。”

人们在大幅增加食物摄入的同时体重下降——秘诀在这里
泰森说,当他在纽约州北部与一名教练合作时,对方教给他控制健康的方法。尽管他承认自己有时会“偷懒松懈”,导致体重增加20-40磅,但他表示学到的方法让他能快速减重。
“这是我一生中最大的战斗,”泰森补充道,“我想在这个领域成为英雄,因为它影响着我的生活。”
此次活动距泰森在超级碗期间播出的一则广告播出仅几天。在广告中,泰森谈到了应对美国依赖加工食品的重要性。在广告中,泰森还提到了他的妹妹丹尼斯,她25岁时因肥胖引发的心脏病去世。
这位传奇拳击手在自己的Facebook页面上发布了这段视频,并表示这是“我一生中最重要的战斗”。
“我一生中最重要的战斗不在拳台之上。我不是要争夺一条金腰带——我正在争取我们的健康。加工食品正在杀死我们。我们一直被误导,现在需要重新开始食用真正的食物,”泰森写道。

即使在2024年总统竞选期间,肯尼迪关注重点也是美国慢性病的上升趋势,他认为这与超加工食品消费增加有关。他和罗林斯今年1月公布的指南实际上颠覆了早已过时食物金字塔,将蛋白质、乳制品健康脂肪、水果和蔬菜移至倒三角的宽阔顶部区域,而将全谷物置于狭窄底部。
“更好的健康始于餐盘——而非医药柜。《美国人膳食指南(2025-2030)》将真正完整、营养密集的食物放回它们应有的位置:健康的核心,”政府指南网站RealFood.gov上写道。
新指南中的蛋白质目标为“每天每公斤体重1.2-1.6克蛋白质”。此外,指南建议美国人每天食用三份蔬菜和两份水果,同时建议每天食用两至四份全谷物——尽管明确不推荐精制碳水化合物。

Legendary boxer Mike Tyson found himself in a new arena on Wednesday as he stood with Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, partnering with the Trump administration to fight obesity.
“I had a sister that died at 25 from obesity. And where I come from, Brownsville, Brooklyn, is the most violent, poverty-stricken neighborhood in the city of New York and ultra-processed food was just the norm,” Tyson said. “We didn’t have much money, but we had food stamps, and food stamps can buy you the candy, the sugar and all that soda and all that rotten stuff.”
FOODS THAT AMERICANS WERE TOLD TO AVOID FOR DECADES ARE BACK UNDER TRUMP’S NEW NUTRITION RULES

Kennedy and Rollins were providing updates on the rollout of the government’s new dietary guidelines, which were unveiled in January. During the event on Wednesday, several speakers, including Tyson, spoke about the dangers of ultra-processed food and the need to get Americans to shift their diets toward real food.
“We were able to reduce hundreds of pages of dietary guidelines… to about six pages, but it’s just three words: Eat real food,” Kennedy said to the crowd as he closed the event. “I ask you all to start doing that today if you’re not already doing it.”

PEOPLE LOST WEIGHT WHILE EATING SIGNIFICANTLY MORE FOOD — HERE’S THE SECRET
Tyson said that when he went to work with a trainer in upstate New York, he was given the tools to keep his health in check. While he admits that he can “fool around” and get “lazy,” leading to gaining 20-40 pounds, he says the tools he learned have allowed him to lose weight fast.
“This is the biggest fight of my life,” Tyson added. “I want to be a hero in this particular field because it affects my life.”
The event comes just days after the airing of an ad during the Super Bowl in which Tyson speaks about the importance of tackling the U.S.’s reliance on processed food. In the ad, Tyson also speaks about his sister, Denise, who died at the age of 25 from an obesity-linked heart attack.
The legendary boxer posted the video on his Facebook page, and said it was “the most important fight of my life.”
“The most important fight of my life isn’t in the ring. I’m not fighting for a belt. I’m fighting for our health. Processed foods are killing us. We have been lied to, and we need to eat real food again,” Tyson wrote.

Kennedy’s focus, even during his own 2024 presidential campaign, has been the rise of chronic illness in the U.S., which he believes is linked to an increased consumption of ultra-processed foods. The guidelines that he and Rollins unveiled in January effectively flip the already outdated food pyramid, moving protein, dairy, health fats, fruits and vegetables to the wide top of the inverted triangle, while relegating whole grains to the narrow bottom.
“Better health begins on your plate — not in your medicine cabinet. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025-2030 put real, whole, nutrient-dense foods back where they belong: at the center of health,” the government website on the guidelines, RealFood.gov, reads.
The protein target in the new guidelines is “1.2–1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day.” Additionally, the guidance recommends Americans consume three servings of vegetables and two servings of fruits every day. Meanwhile, it is recommended that Americans eat two to four servings of whole grains daily, although it specifies that refined carbohydrates are not recommended.
