Abstract in brief

The Food Guide for the Brazilian Population (GAPB) is an official tool aimed at promoting healthy eating and supporting food and nutrition education, considering Brazil's diverse culinary culture.
It focuses on food itself rather than just nutrients, making it easier for the public to understand, but it overlooks some risks like processed foods, ultraprocessed foods, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
While innovative in encouraging mindful eating and family meals, the guide needs updates to better address current food risks and scientific concerns.]
