Restaurants should be required to provide customers with nutritional as well as content of food information. This would allow customers to make more specific and informed decisions regarding the food they are consuming.

And, this would allow customers that want or need to be aware of the nutritional value of food being consumed. Although many Americans do partake in dining out, there ...

Introduction

In recent decades, trends in diets tailored to promote weight loss have resulted in a significant increase in the intake of protein, particular in people with overweight and obesity issues. Accordingly, researchers have questioned the benefits or risks linked to the habitual consumption of “dietary protein in excess of recommended intakes” (Martin et al., 2005). In general, the primary concern has involved the possibility that diets rich in protein may increase hyperfiltration and, hence, exacerbate renal damage. Nevertheless, the potential link between protein-rich diets and renal damage has also been questioned due to an absence of adequate clinical evidence. ...

As athletes, physicians, sports professionals, and the general public continue to search for the most effective diet for nutrition and physical development, high protein diets have emerged as a viable alternative for many people. However, there are disagreements about how to define a “high protein diet” (Tipton). Touted for many years, the Atkins Diet initially allows no calories from carbohydrates and moves into a maintenance regimen of only meat and vegetables (Westman, Phinney and Volek). The Paleo Diet has emerged as a similar recommendation of organ meats, fruits, vegetables, and nuts while excluding grains, sugar, dairy, and legumes (Tarantino, ...

Increasing Access and Use of Local Certified Farmers’ Markets:

Abstract The Supplemental Nutrition Program Women, Infants, and Children provides healthy foods, nutritional education and certain referral services to low-income pregnant and post-partum women, infants, and children up to age five. Groundbreaking modifications in 2009 added cash vouchers for fruits and vegetables to WIC’s approved foods list. While these vouchers are redeemable at local Certified Farmers’ Markets, research in California exposed specific barriers to WIC participants utilizing this option. Our proposal addresses the three main deterrents to redeeming vouchers at local farmers’ markets, including: (1) lack of transportation, CFM in close proximity or knowledge of CFM location, (2) ...

For the comfort and high standard of living, the humanity is paying the price – its health. It is difficult to argue with that, especially now, when the official WHO data is given: fifty percent of earthlings suffer from overweight. And no matter how we tried to convince ourselves and others that the whole thing is only a slow metabolism, the fact remains – there are practically no fat people in the countries with a low standard of living. This means that the main cause of obesity is still overeating. However, nutritionists believe that people do not gain weight as much ...
