World Health Organization (WHO)

It is important to consume all of the vegetable sub groups because each subgroup contributes

a high proportion of healthy nutrients relative to the number of calories.

The average American typically gets _____ of their calories from solid fats and added sugars each day. about 25% about one-third all about 75% about 50%

about 25%

The trouble with much of food desert research, explains Lee, is that it simply correlates food deserts to income and obesity but doesn't show that lack of

access to nutritious foods is the cause of residents' unhealthy eating habits

Processed foods encompass a wide range of food products, some of which can

actually contribute favorably to nutrient intake and overall dietary quality

Ultra-processed foods typically get most of their calories from saturated fats and

added sugars

___ ____ must now be indicated on the label as research shows that it is difficult to meet nutrient needs while staying within calorie limits when calories from added sugars contribute more than 10% of total daily energy intake

A good way to reduce solid fat intake is to eat lean meats and significantly reduce the intake of

cheese, pizza, desserts, and pastries

Give an example of a specific grain product that often contains a significant amount of saturated fat.

chips?

The 2015 edition of the dietary guidelines focuses on shifts to emphasize the need to make substitutions—that is,

choosing nutrient-dense foods and beverages in place of less healthy choices—rather than increase intake overall.

Although the NLEA was an important first step in providing nutrition information to consumers to assist them in making informed food choices, many found labels

confusing and difficult to understand

Core Characteristics: Moderation examples:

contain excess amounts of sugar, salt, and unhealthy fat

Availability is the only part of the equation. People make food choices based on many other factors such as

nutritional sustainability

In Lee's study, a sample of children from a range of different neighborhoods that were followed from kindergarten to fifth grade showed that those with better access to nutritious foods in their neighborhoods were no less likely to become

obese

Although it's fine to eat energy-dense foods on occasion and in moderation, for many Americans, consuming excessive amounts of energy-dense foods and minimal amounts of nutrient-dense foods is a daily norm—contributing not only to unbalanced nutrition but also to

obesity and other chronic diseases.

Today, eating is all about _____ . Making food choices requires some planning and thought.
