"The flurry of news reports about the new federal dietary guidelines and updating of the 'food pyramid' has left some Americans in a dither about following this latest word from Uncle Sam. Nine daily servings of fruits and vegetables may sound like a prescription for crunching carrots pretty much from morning till night. Just exactly how much is 'at least three ounces' of whole grains and how can you tell if you're getting enough? And that call to exercise up to 90 minutes a day--who has time?" (TUFTS UNIVERSITY HEALTH & NUTRITION LETTER) The article addresses consumer concerns about the new food pyramid and nutritional guidelines issued by the U.S. government.
