A Healthful Diet
A healthful diet is...
• Adequate
• Moderate
• Balanced
• Varied
![Page 3: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

A Healthful Diet is Adequate
An adequate diet provides enough energy, nutrients, fiber, and vitamins to support a person’s health.
A diet adequate in many nutrients can still be inadequate in a few nutrients.
![Page 4: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
A Healthful Diet is Moderate
Another key to a healthful diet is moderation.
A healthful diet contains the right amounts of foods for maintaining proper weight.
![Page 5: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
A Healthful Diet is Balanced
A balanced diet contains the right combinations of foods to provide the proper balance of nutrients.
![Page 6: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
A Healthful Diet is Varied
Variety refers to eating many different types of foods each day.
A healthful diet is not based on only one or a few types of foods.
![Page 7: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Designing A Healthful Diet
The tools for designing a healthful diet may include:
• Food Labels
• Dietary Guidelines
• MyPyramid – the Food Guide Pyramid
• Diet Plans
![Page 8: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Food Labels
The FDA requires food labels on most products. These labels must include:1. A statement of identity
2. Net contents of the package
3. Ingredients list
4. Manufacturer’s name and address
5. Nutrition information
(Nutrition Facts Panel)
![Page 9: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

MyPyramid
There is no standardized definition for a serving size of any food.
Serving sizes listed in MyPyramid are often smaller than serving sizes on nutrition labels and smaller than the quantities Americans typically eat.
![Page 30: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

MyPyramid
MyPyramid does not clearly define low-fat and low-calorie food choices.
When making choices in each food group, nutrient dense foods are the best choice.
Nutrient density: the relative amount of nutrients per calorie of food.
![Page 37: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Limitations of MyPyramid
The serving sizes are relatively small
Low-fat and low-calorie food choices are not clearly defined in each food category
Thus,
the revised dietary guidelines and MyPyramid did not go far enough in encouraging to consume more healthful foods
![Page 40: Designing A Healthful Diet – Chapt. 2 taught by Norman D. Sossong, MD, PhD NSCC – NTR150 – Spring 2008](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551918c055034638428b4a01/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Eating Out on a Healthful Diet
Eating in restaurants often involves:
• High-fat foods
• Large portion sizes
A restaurant meal can be equivalent to the recommended fat or calorie intake for an entire day!
