Offers positive, practical choices for breakfast, lunch and dinner., Vicky Newman

Advisory committee, Joseph M. Cannella ... and others

Abstract: To minimize dietary health risks, foods that offer alternate choices to the traditional American diet, yet complement the American lifestyle, are suggested for consumers. Health risks are associated with diets high in fats, cholesterol, sodium, sugar and low in fiber. Breakfast, lunch (both at home and away), dinner, and restaurant eating are examined. Changes adhere to the US Dietary Guidelines developed by USDA and DHHS. Elimination of foods is not advocated, rather the modification of eating habits to support the guidelines' recommendations is explained. Permanent weight control measures along with exercise are stressed. (kbc)
