What the experts say about the 2010 dietary guidelines report - latimes.com

This L.A. Times piece is a terrific review of the Institute of Medicine's latest nutritional recommendations from a spectrum of nutrition gurus. The new guidelines, pushing for a more plant based diet, are integrated into the reauthorization of The Child Nutrition Act.

As mentioned in one of my latest Clarion Ledger op-ed pieces on public school lunches, the Child Nutrition Act will affect 32 million kids that consume school cafeteria food. That's a biggie.

The Times piece is a lengthy article filled with pros and cons, but well worth the time in nutrition education. Click on the above link, print it out, sit back with a glass of green tea and enjoy.
