In part to respond to these recommendations, the FY2019 appropriations bill provided a one-time allocation of $12.3 million to CNPP, divided over 3 y, to support the 2020–2025 DGAs (186). These one-time funds are supporting a limited set of systematic reviews of published evidence, but not any new research to address critical knowledge gaps. As previously noted, only ∼1.3% of NIH-supported research focuses on diet for the prevention or treatment of disease in humans, and furthermore, among these, only about half of the projects relate to key research gaps identified by the 2015 DGAC (117–119). In addition, while the 2014 Farm Bill (Public Law 113–79) mandated that the DGAs include, for the first time, food-based nutrition guidance for infants and toddlers aged 0–24 mo and women who are pregnant or lactating (prior DGAs did not include or consider these critical populations), no funding was authorized or appropriated to support this new mandate. Given the first-ever focus of the 2020–2025 DGAs on these important populations, it is expected that the 2020 DGAC will identify even more knowledge gaps for setting national dietary guidance than prior editions (187).
