26 nov 1990 año - 1990 Dietary Guidelines for Americans

Descripción:

"Released in November 1990, the 1990 Dietary Guidelines for Americans featured recommendations developed and released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Health and Human Services (HHS). It remained the Federal guidance until the 1995 Dietary Guidelines was released." 1

"USDA and HHS established a second Federal advisory committee of nine members, which considered whether revisions to the 1985 Dietary Guidelines were needed and made recommendations for revision in a report to the Secretaries. The 1988 Surgeon General's Report on Nutrition and Health and the 1989 National Research Council’s Report: Diet and Health: Implications for Reducing Chronic Disease Risk were key resources used by the Committee. For the first time, the Advisory Committee included a summary of the more than 80 public comments received in its Scientific Report." 2

"USDA and HHS jointly released the third edition of Nutrition and Your Health: Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The basic tenets of the 1985 Dietary Guidelines were reaffirmed, with additional refinements made to reflect increased understanding of the science of nutrition and how best to communicate the science to consumers. The language of the new Dietary Guidelines was positive, oriented toward the total diet, and provided a new section “Advice for Today” to call out specific information regarding food selection and health." 2
