Answer to Question 1

Whereas 100 years ago there were relatively few food choices available and the available foods were mostly whole foods, the number of foods supplied by the food industry today is astounding. Tens of thousands of foods now line the market shelvesmany are processed mixtures of the basic ones, and some are constructed entirely from highly processed ingredients. Ironically, this abundance often makes it more difficult, rather than easier, to plan a nutritious diet.
