The guideline in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGAs) that is NOT recommended is "limit added sugars to no more than 20% of calories." The actual recommendation is to limit added sugars to less than 10% of calories per day. Consuming half of all grains as whole grains, replacing saturated fats with oils when possible, and choosing a variety of protein foods are in fact recommended guidelines in the DGAs.
