Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

The answer is both yes and no. It is no in the sense that no one federal body or agency has as its sole mandate to establish, implement, and evaluate national nutrition policy. However, the U.S. does have food assistance programs, national nutrition and health objectives as found in the Healthy People 2020 initiative, regulations to safeguard the food supply and ensure the proper handling of food products, dietary guidance systems, monitoring and surveillance programs, and food labeling legislation.
