Download or read book Redesigning the Process for Establishing the Dietary Guidelines for Americans written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What foods should Americans eat to promote their health, and in what amounts? What is the scientific evidence that supports specific recommendations for dietary intake to reduce the risk of multifactorial chronic disease? These questions are critically important because dietary intake has been recognized to have a role as a key determinant of health. As the primary federal source of consistent, evidence-based information on dietary practices for optimal nutrition, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) have the promise to empower Americans to make informed decisions about what and how much they eat to improve health and reduce the risk of chronic disease. The adoption and widespread translation of the DGA requires that they be universally viewed as valid, evidence-based, and free of bias and conflicts of interest to the extent possible. However, this has not routinely been the case. A first short report meant to inform the 2020 review cycle explored how the advisory committee selection process can be improved to provide more transparency, eliminate bias, and include committee members with a range of viewpoints. This second and final report recommends changes to the DGA process to reduce and manage sources of bias and conflicts of interest, improve timely opportunities for engagement by all interested parties, enhance transparency, and strengthen the science base of the process.

Book Synopsis Healthy Eating Guidelines and Weight Loss Advice for the United Kingdom by : Public Health Public Health Collaboration
Download or read book Healthy Eating Guidelines and Weight Loss Advice for the United Kingdom written by Public Health Public Health Collaboration and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05-22 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UK has one of the highest prevalence's of obesity in Europe at 25% and the number of people living with type 2 diabetes has more than doubled since 1996. Both cost the NHS 16 billion a year, and the UK economy at large 47 billion a year. These worrying statistics suggest that there is something wrong with the lifestyles of the UK population. However, according to the latest National Diet and Nutrition Survey published in 2014 by PHE and the FSA adults in the UK have been generally following healthy eating guidelines. In fact on average adults in the UK have been eating 383 calories below the recommended daily amount as well as eating just below the recommended 35% for total fat consumption. This seemingly paradoxical situation of following healthy eating guidelines yet having dire health statistics brings into question the very guidelines that the UK population is being asked to follow. With all of this in mind, the non-profit organisation, Public Health Collaboration (PHC), has written this report on the most up to date science and without the vested interests of the food industry.

Book Synopsis Health Benefits of Nuts and Dried Fruits by : Cesarettin Alasalvar
Download or read book Health Benefits of Nuts and Dried Fruits written by Cesarettin Alasalvar and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuts and dried fruits are part of our daily diet. They are consumed whole or as ingredients of many food products such as muffins, cereals, chocolates, energy bars, breads, and cookies, among others. Health Benefits of Nuts and Dried Fruits provides a comprehensive overview of the literature on the health benefits of nuts and dried fruits. The book summarizes the current state of knowledge in key research areas and provides ideas for future scientific research and product development. Nuts, a term that comprises tree nuts and peanuts, are highly nutritious, containing health-promoting macronutrients, micronutrients, vitamins, and bioactive phytochemicals; they are one of the edible foods with the highest content in antioxidants. The consumption of nuts is recognized for its health-promoting properties, which ranges from a consistent cholesterol-lowering effect in clinical trials to a robust association with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in prospective studies. In spite of the high energy content of nuts, there is no evidence that their frequent consumption promotes obesity, and they may even help control it. Dried fruits, which serve as important healthful snacks worldwide, are nutritionally equivalent to fresh fruits while providing all of their bioactive components in concentrated form. While the evidence level concerning the health effects of dried fruits lags behind that on nuts, it suggests that individuals who consume dried fruits regularly have a lower risk of cardiovascular disease, obesity, and other non-communicable diseases. Main features of the book concerning nuts and dried fruits: • Provides detailed information on health effects • Highlights current regulation and health claims • Provides updated dietary recommendations • Describes nutrient absorption and metabolism • Discusses mechanisms implicated in the health effects Although this book is intended primarily as a reference, by comprehensively reviewing the current state of knowledge it can guide future research on the topic. Among others, food scientists, biochemists, nutritionists, health professionals, decision makers, and regulatory agencies can draw much benefit from its contents. Hopefully, it will help in public health strategies to promote healthy aging and improve population wellbeing.

This book was released on 2014-03-06 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nordic countries have collaborated in setting guidelines for dietary composition and recommended intakes of nutrients for several decades through the joint publication of the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR). This 5th edition, the NNR 2012, gives Dietary Reference Values (DRVs) for nutrients, and compared with earlier editions more emphasis has been put on evaluating the scientific evidence for the role of food and food patterns contributing to the prevention of the major diet-related chronic diseases. Recommendations on physical activity are included and interaction with physical activity has been taken into account for the individual nutrient recommendations wherever appropriate. A chapter on sustainable food consumption has been added. A Nordic perspective has been accounted for in setting the reference values.The NNR 2012 has used an evidence-based and transparent approach in assessing associations between nutrients and foods and certain health outcomes. Systematic reviews form the basis for the recommendations of several nutrients and topics, while a less stringent update has been done for others. The systematic reviews and individual chapters have been peer reviewed and the systematic reviews are published in the Food & Nutrition Research journal. The draft chapters were subject to an open public consultation. Recommendations have been changed only when sufficient scientific evidence has evolved since the 4th edition. The primary aim of the NNR 2012 is to present the scientific background of the recommendations and their application. A secondary aim is for the NNR 2012 to function as a basis for the national recommendations that are adopted by the individual

Book excerpt: "Current food systems jeopardize current and future food production and fail to nourish people adequately. The starting point for this report is the observation that if we are to address the multiple social, health and environmental challenges caused by, and affecting food systems,global populations need to move towards dietary patterns that are both healthy and also respectful of environmental limits. As such, an integrated understanding of what such diets look like is needed, as is action to foster the necessary shifts in consumption.This document is the result of a review of countries Food-based Dietary Guidelines (FBDG). It explores if and how countries incorporate sustainability in their FBDG."--Publisher's description.

Book Synopsis Guideline: Sugars Intake for Adults and Children by : World Health Organization
Download or read book Guideline: Sugars Intake for Adults and Children written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guideline provides updated global, evidence-informed recommendations on the intake of free sugars to reduce the risk of NCDs in adults and children, with a particular focus on the prevention and control of unhealthy weight gain and dental caries. The recommendations in this guideline can be used by policy-makers and programme managers to assess current intake levels of free sugars in their countries relative to a benchmark. They can also be used to develop measures to decrease intake of free sugars, where necessary, through a range of public health interventions. Examples of such interventions and measures that are already being implemented by countries include food and nutrition labelling, consumer education, regulation of marketing of food and non-alcoholic beverages that are high in free sugars, and fiscal policies targeting foods and beverages that are high in free sugars. This guideline should be used in conjunction with other nutrient guidelines and dietary goals, in particular those related to fats and fatty acids (including saturated fatty acids and trans-fatty acids), to guide development of effective public health nutrition policies and programmes to promote a healthy diet.

Book Synopsis Sustainable healthy diets by : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Download or read book Sustainable healthy diets written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering the detrimental environmental impact of current food systems, and the concerns raised about their sustainability, there is an urgent need to promote diets that are healthy and have low environmental impacts. These diets also need to be socio-culturally acceptable and economically accessible for all. Acknowledging the existence of diverging views on the concepts of sustainable diets and healthy diets, countries have requested guidance from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) on what constitutes sustainable healthy diets. These guiding principles take a holistic approach to diets; they consider international nutrition recommendations; the environmental cost of food production and consumption; and the adaptability to local social, cultural and economic contexts. This publication aims to support the efforts of countries as they work to transform food systems to deliver on sustainable healthy diets, contributing to the achievement of the SDGs at country level, especially Goals 1 (No Poverty), 2 (Zero Hunger), 3 (Good Health and Well-Being), 4 (Quality Education), 5 (Gender Equality) and 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) and 13 (Climate Action).
Book Synopsis The Ketogenic Kitchen by : DominiKemp
Download or read book The Ketogenic Kitchen written by DominiKemp and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer survivors Domini Kemp and Patricia Daly offer the first comprehensive ketogenic cookbook based on the most exciting new research on nutritional approaches to the prevention and management of cancer. For decades, the ketogenic diet--which shifts the body's metabolism from burning glucose to burning fat, lowering blood sugar and insulin and resulting in a metabolic state known as ketosis--has been used to successfully manage pediatric epilepsy. More recently, it has been used by the Paleo community as a weight loss strategy. Now emerging research suggests that a ketogenic diet, in conjunction with conventional treatments, also offers new hope for those coping with cancer and other serious disease. With endorsements from leading researchers and oncologists such as Dr. Thomas Seyfried (Cancer as a Metabolic Disease), The Ketogenic Kitchen offers more than 250 recipes, as well as meal plans and comprehensive scientific information about the benefits of a ketogenic diet, with sensible advice to help readers through periods of illness, recovery, and treatment. This North American paperback edition has been updated to include U.S. customary units of measure appearing side-by-side with metric measures.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an expert practical guide to the formulation and implementation of national dietary guidelines based on recommended foods and food groups rather than nutrients. Addressed to policy-makers and the nutritionists who advise them the report aims to facilitate the use of food-based dietary guidelines as a sensible new way to help consumers make healthy food choices. Throughout the report recommendations - whether concerning the importance of food variety or the percent of dietary protein that should be of animal origin - draw on the latest biochemical and physiological knowledge about human nutritional requirements in health and disease. Health problems related to both dietary insufficiency and excess are considered in this comprehensive report. The book opens with an explanation of the many reasons why dietary recommendations based on foods are more effective as an instrument of public health nutrition than are guidelines based on nutrients. Readers are also reminded of the need to formulate dietary guidelines in response to specific diet-related health problems important in a country, and to ensure that recommendations are based on sound scientific evidence. Against this background, the first main section establishes the scientific rationale for the development of food-based dietary guidelines, drawing on current knowledge in four main areas: nutrition science; food science and technology; educational, behavioural, and social sciences; and agricultural and environmental sciences. The section also compares different methods for assessing the nutritional quality of diets and explains each of the steps to follow when reorienting dietary recommendations from nutrients to foods. Methods of monitoring food and nutrient intake are presented and compared in the next section, which includes advice on how data from a range of sources can be used when setting dietary goals and formulating recommendations. Section three provides detailed, step-by-step guidance on how to develop food-based dietary guidelines and ensure that populations understand them and follow their advice. The remaining sections explain how to transform guidelines into message and slogans and monitor their effectiveness in improving dietary practices. In a key achievement, the second part of the report provides an expert state-of-the-art review of scientific knowledge, from animal, clinical, and epidemiological studies, about the relationship between diet, nutrition and health. Throughout this review, a special effort is made to identify areas where scientific data support firm dietary recommendations based on individual foods, food groups, and food combinations. Information ranges from advice on the use of nutrient densities in the development and evaluation of dietary guidelines, through data on the role of vitamins as chemopreventive agents, to a discussion of non-nutrient components found in fruit that may explain their capacity to prevent cardiovascular diseases and gastrointestinal cancers. The report concludes with examples of the ways in which foods and food groups have been incorporated into dietary guidelines in selected countries.

Book Synopsis Feeding Infants and Children from Birth to 24 Months by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book Feeding Infants and Children from Birth to 24 Months written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recommendations for feeding infants and young children have changed substantially over time owing to scientific advances, cultural influences, societal trends, and other factors. At the same time, stronger approaches to reviewing and synthesizing scientific evidence have evolved, such that there are now established protocols for developing evidence-based health recommendations. However, not all authoritative bodies have used such approaches for developing infant feeding guidance, and for many feeding questions there is little or no sound evidence available to guide best practices, despite the fact that research on infant and young child feeding has expanded in recent decades. Summarizing the current landscape of feeding recommendations for infants and young children can reveal the level of consistency of existing guidance, shed light on the types of evidence that underpin each recommendation, and provide insight into the feasibility of harmonizing guidelines. Feeding Infants and Children from Birth to 24 Months collects, compares, and summarizes existing recommendations on what and how to feed infants and young children from birth to 24 months of age. This report makes recommendations to stakeholders on strategies for communicating and disseminating feeding recommendations.
