Demographic Trends Influencing Food Habits | Diverse population, immigration, aging population, and family structure |
Food Consumption Patters | Americans are consuming more foods, more food is wasted, more families are eating OUT (8/10), increase in meat/poultry consumption |
Food trends | eating out, more frozen meals eaten(no prep convenience), more meat and potatoes (hamburgers 1st then chicken), ethnic foods, specialty dairy, functional foods w/ added ingredients, skipped lunches is most common, drinking cals, snacking between meals |
Top food trends to watch | Cooking with healthier oils, more fruits and veggies, soy, organic and locally grown foods, causal indulgences, new condiments, more cheese and custom foods, interest in healthy eating and children's health |
9 Recommendations of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and describe each: | 1Adequate nutrition w/ in calorie needs 2Weight Management 3Physical Activity 4Food groups to ENCOURAGE 5Fats 6Carbohydrates 7Sodium and Potassium 8Alchohol 9 Food Safety |
1.Adequate nutrition w/ in calorie needs | limit sat/trans fats, sugar, alcohol, and meet recs from MyPYramid |
2. Weight Management | Balance cals from foods and beverages w/ cals expended, and decrease food intake and increase PE if you want to lose wt. |
3. Physical Activity | Movement of the body that uses energy; 30 minutes of moderate or vigorous a day |
Moderate Physical Activity | walking briskly, hiking, gardening, yard work, dancing, golfing, biking, wt. training |
Vigorous Physical Activity | running/jogging, biking more than 10mph, swimming, aerobics, walking fast, heavy yardwork, wt. lifting, basketball |
To reduce chronic disease | 30 minutes of moderate PA 5-7 days/week |
To manage body weight | 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity 5-7 days a week and not exceeding daily nutrition intake |
To maintain weight loss | 60-90 minutes of daily moderate intensity PA 5-7 days a week |
4 Food groups to encourage | 2 cups of fruit and 2.5 of veggies daily, 3 oz of whole grains daily (1/2 whole), 3 cups of milk daily |
5. Fats | Limit saturated and trans fatty acids, chose lean/low fat; only 20-35 percent of cals shoudl come from fat; less than 300mg of cholesterol daily |
6. Carbohydrates | Choose fiber rich foods like fruis, whole grains; reduce intake of sugars; 14 grams of fiber per 1000 cals (Americans consume 10 or less) |
Recomendations for Fiber intake | Men under 50 (38g), women under 50 (25), men over 50 (30), women over 50(21 g) |

8. Alcohol | 1/ day and 2 for men |
9. Food safety | avoid foods w/ viruses/bacteria, wash fruits/veggies, separate raw and cooked foods, don't wash raw poultry and meats |
Relationship between Dietary Guidelines and MyPyramid | MyPyramid incorporates Dietary guidelines for people over age of 2; takes into account age, gender, activity level |
6 emphasized areas of MyPyramid | 1. Personalization 2. Gradual Improvement 3. Physical Activity 4. Variety 5. Moderation 6. Proportionality |
Food Groups in the Pyramid | 1. Grains 2. Fruits 3. Vegetables 4. Fats/oils 5. Meats/ Beans 6. Milk |
1. Grains Recommendations | women 6oz; Men 8oz; 1 oz (slice of bread, cup of cereal, 1/2 cup of rice or pasta or oatmeal) |

5 types of vegetables | 1. Dark green 2. Orange 3.Dry beans and peas 4. Starchy 5. Other (okra, broccoli, tomatoes, okra) |
3. Fruit recommendations (fiber, vitamin C benefits) | 2 cups daily, go easy on juices (I cup= banana, apple, 32 grapes, orange, 1/2 cup dried fruit) |
4. Milk (protein, calcium, vitamin C) | 3 cups daily (1 cup= milk, yogurt, 1.5 oz cheese, 2 oz. processed cheese) |
5. Meats and Beans (protein, iron, meat/poultry, eggs, nuts, seeds, beans) | women 5.5 oz, men 6.5 oz daily; most Americans get enough meat but need to eat leaner meat (1 oz= 1 egg, 1 tbsp. PB, 1 oz meat) |
6. Oils and Fats | Oils are liquid at room temperature and come from plants, fish, nuts, plants(don't contain cholesterol); solid fats come from animals and are made into veggies from HYDROGENATION; |
Oil recommendations | 6 tsp for women, 7 for men; most exceed because of fried foods (1 tbl= 3 tsp oil, 1 oz nuts=3 tsps oil, 2 tbl Pb= 4 tsps) |
Calorie Recommendations | Women 19-30 (2000 for sedentary and 2400 for active); Men 19-30(2400 or 3000 if active) |
Discretionary calorie allowance | 100 to 300 extra calories that you can eat that your body doesn't need for energy (extra for foods high in fat/sugar) |
