Product Description
Today more and more Americans are obsessed with diet. At any time, one in three men claim to be on a diet. For women, the figure is one in two. At the same time, 30 percent of the adult population in the United States is obese. It is not surprising, then, that there has been a general reappraisal of nutritional practices among Americans of all ages. Diet and Nutrition Sourcebook provides information about nutrition and healthy dietary practices. In this book general readers will learn about food values, current nutritional issues and concerns, recent findings in nutritional research, and how to use the new Food Label that was established by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1993. (See also Diet and Nutrition Sourcebook, 2nd edition, published 1999.)

I need to find information on healthful nutrition and dietary practices. A two page report would be awsome.
