CED-80-68 1 (1980-04-30)

handle is hein.gao/gaobabamv0001 and id is 1 raw text is: BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL Report To The Congress OF THFE UNITED STATES What Foods Should Americans Eat? Better Information Needed On Nutritional Quality Of Foods Consumers, Government, industry, and others need better information on the nutritional value of foods. Presently there are no generally accepted nutrition principles and no authorita- tive guidance on what amounts are too much or too little of such controversial food sub- stances as fat, cholesterol, salt, sugar, fiber, and alcohol, which have been linked to major dis- eases and disorders. This report makes recommendations to the Secretaries of the Departments of Agriculture and Health, Education, and Welfare to provide such information to assist Americans in mak- ing decisions about nutrition and help reduce consumer confusion. Food decisions are becoming increasingly diffi- cult for consumers and Government to make due to the many thousands of food items to choose from, a changing lifestyle that generally requires consuming fewer calories, and a grow- ing desire to select foods that promote good health. lB II215IIIU /l 112195 ,219,5 CED-80-68 APRIL 30, 1980 ton 7e 0Ioo
