Answer to Question 1

The two major broad goals of the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans are to help individuals: (1) maintain energy balance over time to achieve and sustain a healthy weight, and (2) focus on consuming nutrient-dense foods and beverages. Underlying the broad goals is the concept that nutrient needs should be met primarily through consuming foods (not supplements). The four major concepts around which the key recommendations clustered include: (A) balance calories to maintain weight, (B) reduce certain foods and food components, (C) increase certain food and nutrients, and (D) build healthy eating patterns.
