Answer to Question 1

Adequacy is the dietary characteristic of providing all of the essential nutrients, fiber, and energy in amounts sufficient to maintain health and body weight. Balance is the dietary characteristic of providing foods of a number of types in proportion to each other, such that foods rich in some nutrients do not crowd out of the diet foods that are rich in other nutrients. Calorie control is the dietary characteristic of controlling energy intake. Moderation is the dietary characteristic ofproviding constituents within set limits, not toexcess. Variety is the dietary characteristic of providing a wide selection of foods.
