The Seattle Times recently issued an article regarding the new Dietary Guidelines released in the UK. The article focuses on the guidelines' suggestion for eating less red meat and includes studies that show negative health consequences as a result. It's interesting to see how other countries are responding to the relationship between health and diet.
Despite our current economic "crisis" in America, we continue to be one of the wealthiest countries, with a majority of citizens accessing calorie-rich, yet almost nutrient-free and not necessarily healthy, foods. This raises a completely different issue, but one that has certainly influenced our culture of diet and lifestyle. Enjoy the article.
