31. January 2011, the Department of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Secretary of the United States, the Department of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius announced the 2010 dietary guidelines for the release of the Americans. These guidelines are described as "the Federal Government for purposes of control to reduce the nutritional health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases, overweight and obesity improved nutrition and physical activity."
Professor of medicine at the University of Vermont Ph.d., M.D., Naomi in Fukagawa, was one of the 13 prominent scientists nourishment, the expertise of the human metabolism, activity-related changes and appointed in 2008, the 2010 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC) that developed the recommendations of this policy to serve the health. Board certified pediatrician and specializes in nutritional Biochemistry and metabolism, Fukagawa, who served as the Director of the DGAC's Chair, recently some of the questions to respond to the new guidelines.
Q: , The salt intake recommendation is for the major part of the new guidelines. What is the recommendation of the Committee's findings supported?
"The DGAC report recommended a gradual reduction of the 1 500 milligrams of salt a day. American policy in the 2010 diet guidelines recommend values in milligrams/day, which was the objective of the 2005 recommendations. The Institute of medicine, the World Health Organization (who) and other large organisations recommend that 2, 000 milligrams per day, so we are not out of the world to bring them into line with the view to. The recommendation is directed at blood pressure control. Over the last decade, which follows the salt intake, as well as the increased calorie intake may be among the most impressive about the children's blood pressure was rising. Does the salt effect on blood pressure is the actual limit value, but the literature suggests that less than values in milligrams a day can be applied to children and adults in the age of 50 years. However, certain groups, it is easier to blood pressure-raising effects of salt and, in so far as they are, the recommendation is to try to reduce the intake of 1,500 milligrams per day. These groups make up about half the U.s. population, and included in the age of 51, African Americans of all ages and people with pulmonary disease, diabetes or chronic kidney disease. The challenge is in a State of flux, food supply and operation of realistic target, fill in the five years. It is difficult to dissect out the "egg or the hen" a phenomenon, because there has been an increase in Calories can lead to obesity and blood pressure with obesity often rises. However, it is clear that we are probably more than we consume salt. "
Q:Another important amendment is the second, in addition to serving the seafood per week. You can comment on the investigation, the Committee adopted the recommendation of theled?
"The Data support the omega-3 fatty acids, the value of all age groups. The treatment will be reviewed in the light of evidence from the DGAC in crustaceans, the omega-3 fatty acids and cardiovascular disease, with the exception of using nutritional supplements, the relationship between the consumption of the risk and stated that the two 4-Ounce servings of seafood per week consumption reduced cardiac mortality was associated with heart disease or coronary artery with or without cardiovascular disease, sudden cardiac death. Unfortunately, in order, the fear of mercury and persistent organic pollutants (POP) — chemical compounds, which are continuing to accumulate through the food web in the environment and cause adverse effects on human health and the environment, the danger — Access to parts of the country, as well as the difficulties in some, the intake was less than the recommended. Even if the supplement is the use of the public, the DGAC believed that the entire provided food to more than fatty acids, and is, therefore, was to encourage a whole fish. The challenge is to find an ecologically friendly and effective ways to increase the consumption. Unfortunately, the evidence was little omega-3 fatty acids from plants-would be equally effective. Mothers had satisfactory evidence that the increased omega-3 fatty acids during pregnancy was associated with higher levels of access to the ta-or Docosahexaenoic acid – breast milk and infant health outcomes, such as vision and cognitive development. "
Q: What exactly are the "whole food" and what are the potential roadblocks throughout the entire food and access to the people?
"Whole foods are low in processed and nutrients — but not in dense calorie — and be packaged or frozen".Nutrient dense "indicates that the nutrients and other useful substances in a foodstuff is not diluted Calories by adding a term to be added to the solid fats, added sugars, or added to the refined starch or solid fats naturally present in food, such as the fat in the meat, poultry, liquid milk and other milk products, such as cheese and. Supplements or individual components of the diet of raw "cannot be considered to be" whole. " The roadblocks to are obvious — it is difficult for large amounts of traffic, and to maintain freshness. People are often too busy chef to Cook or do not know the ingredients in the "size" with ". The challenges are, therefore, a combination of availability and willingness of consumers to choose the "whole foods". "
Q:How critical is the accurate nutritional labelling, help to ensure compliance with the guidelines? What are food manufacturers on the labelling of foodstuffsexisting requirements?
"It is important to mark those who read them as a guide, but make sure that people understand their individual needs and the choices of food labels, it is more important to the wise. The labelling requirements are changing, as well as on the basis of the requirements of the consumers and of the proposed legislation. "
Q: What are the top five most important dietary recommendations for new guidelines?
The balance of Calories in the maintain a healthy weight: enjoy the food, but you eat less and avoid oversized parts; stay physically active.To improve fruit and vegetable intake.Reducing sodium intake and drink water instead of sugary drinks.Consume nutrient-containing foods and beverages and establish healthy eating pattern.Encourage behavior change, you can set up a lifelong healthy eating, physical activity and weight management.
