The responsibility for updating the Food Guide Pyramid every five years falls to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in collaboration with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). This process involves reviewing and incorporating the latest scientific research on nutrition and health to ensure the guidelines reflect current knowledge.
