2005 Dietary Guidelines - If you're confused about diet and exercise, you're not alone. Low-carb, low-fat, low-calorie - which one is right for you? And, how much should you exercise - moderately or vigorously, and how often? The U.S. government has come to your aid with The 2005 Dietary Guidelines, a joint publication of the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services and Agriculture.
Published once every five years, The 2005 Dietary Guidelines provides no-nonsense information and advice for choosing a nutritious diet, maintaining a healthy weight, achieving adequate exercise, and keeping foods safe to avoid foodborne illness. It is chock-full of figures and tables displaying information on nutrients, vitamins and minerals, weight management, physical activity, food groups, fats, carbohydrates, sodium and potassium and alcoholic beverages.
Written by a committee of scientific experts who reviewed and analyzed the most current dietary and nutritional information, it is a detailed scientific analysis that identifies key issues such as energy balance, the consequences of a sedentary lifestyle, and the need to emphasize certain food choices to address nutrition issues for the American public.
