The 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines have been announced by the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee!

What if you are currently using a McGraw Hill Nutrition product that isn’t in a new edition, and what about our titles that came out in January 2020 or before? Not to worry, we will be updating the digital products, ebooks, and Connect content with the 2020-2025 guidelines immediately.
