Dietary guidelines are specific amounts of vitamins, minerals , proteins, fats , carbs, etc that a given individual or group of individuals should structure their daily intake of nourishment (food& drink) around.
There are guidelines established by the US government to serve as a benchmark for all to develop their own guidelines from. A physician may also set up some specific dietary guidelines for someone based upon that person's current medical situation or goal.
