Nutrition knowledge sometimes is referred to as “the art and science of nutrition.” This chapter links principles of the science of nutrition with applications that can enhance the public’s nutritional health.II.Principles of the Science of Nutrition Chapter 1 gets students up to speed on basic nutrition. This section is a crash course. The 10 principles of human nutrition, listed in Table 1.1 (p. 2), beginning with “food is a basic need of humans,” constitute the thread that links the many concepts presented in this chapter. Six major nutrient categories (carbohydrate, protein, fats [lipids], vitamins, minerals, and water) are defined in Table 1.2 (p. 3). Dietary intake standards for each of the essential nutrients in the six nutrient categories depend on an individual’s age, gender, growth pattern and other factors listed on p. 3-4. A thorough list of food sources of vitamins is provided in Table 1.10 (p. 18 – 22) and a list of food sources of minerals is presented in Table 1.14 (p. 28 - 31). Examples of diseases and disorders that are linked to diet are given in Table 1.16 (p. 35). The discussion questions and activities for Chapter 1 highlight essential nutrients, providing students with practice opportunities to evaluate their own personal nutrient needs.III.Nutritional Labeling This section includes a discussion of the items included in the Nutrition Facts panel and the ingredient label, an explanation of the health claims on the labels of foods and dietary supplements, definitions of enrichment and fortification, and a brief introduction on herbal remedies. Functional foods are defined and examples are provided.IV.The Life-Course Approach to Nutrition and Health Sections on dietary modification due to culture and religion provide good opportunities to engage students early in classroom discussion.V.Nutrition Assessment The extent and thoroughness of a nutrition-related assessment depends on the proposed use of the assessment. Questions about nutritional status are asked in context of some intended action or follow up. At the community level, food and nutrition assessment is done from a public health perspective and based on demographic variables (age, gender, income, food and nutrition survey results, and birth and death records), as well as community inventories (number and types of grocery stores and delivery services, markets, distance to stores from bus routes, transportation systems, number and types of restaurants, clinics or other health support services, etc.). Individual assessments are compiled using the ABCD model: anthropometric, biochemical, clinical/physical, and dietary measures. Learning how to competently carry out each assessment approach can easily take a semester-long class.In this text, each of the life-cycle stage sections elaborates on some aspect of nutritional assessment. Various methods of dietary assessment are described, including the USDA Automated Multiple-Pass Dietary Recall.In the U.S., the National Nutrition Monitoring System regularly investigates issues related to nutritional health such as food availability, dietary intake, weight status, and incidence of nutrition-related diseases. Several national survey methods are described (Table 1.18, p.42).VI.Public Food and Nutrition Programs Funding for food programs comes from governmental and private agencies; household need and eligibility are frequently determined by using the federally-issued poverty guidelines, 3 / 4

Food and nutrition programs provide vouchers, cash or actual food, nutrition services, education, and referral. Table 1.20 (p. 44) is a summary of federal food and nutrition programs that are further described in the life- cycle chapters. Table 1.21 (p. 44) provides the objectives for improving the nutritional health of the nation as outlined in the document “Healthy People 2020”.VII. Nutrition and Health Guidelines for Americans Food guidance documents reflect national perspectives on health. Guidelines are designed to improve the public’s health by reducing risk of the most prevalent diseases.ChooseMyPlate.gov (Illustration 1.12, p. 45), the replacement for the former USDA Food Guide Pyramid, now offers individual guidance regarding what to eat, including adaptations for various cultural eating patterns. Food guidance documents were designed to reduce disease risks. The 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee concluded that the health of the U.S. population could be improved, and common chronic diseases and disorders prevented, if Americans consume a healthy dietary pattern (shown in Table 1.22, p. 45) and exercise regularly. Key elements of the 2015 Dietary Guidelines related to food and nutrient intake, dietary pattern, and food safety and sustainability are listed in Table 1.23 (p. 46).Internet Resources At-a-Glance In textbook •Mercury levels in commercial fish and shellfish
