The Dietary Guidelines for Americans have been published every five years since 1980 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Health and Human Services. Their purpose is to provide the basis for federal nutrition policy and nutrition education activities, and they offer advice as to food choices that promote health and prevent disease in Americans ages two and older.
The 2000 Dietary Guidelines for Americans are:
The Food Guide Pyramid was created by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to help Americans choose foods from each food grouping. The focus of the pyramid is on fat, which most Americans over-consume. The base of the pyramid comprises foods that should be consumed in the greatest quantity; the top of the pyramid comprises foods that should be consumed sparingly.
Starting from base to top, the food groups and number of servings that should be consumed daily are as follows:
Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives is a national preventive strategy for improving the health of Americans. The Secretary of Health and Human Services submits the guidelines to Congress. Reports are compiled by the National Center for Health Statistics, and the Centers for Disease Control. The guidelines have three major goals and 319 objectives. The three goals are: to increase the span of a healthy life; to decrease health disparities; and to achieve access to preventive services for everyone. One or more agencies of the U.S. Public Health Service are designated to coordinate the activities.
