A National Nutrition Policy? In nutrition today, many professionals are saying America’s major need is “putting it all together." What they mean is we must now decide how we are going to best approach the national needs of our people. We know what many of the needs are. The technology is available to add to that knowledge. But there has been no central agreement on how we are to get the job done. The movement for such agreement has grown steadily since the 1969 White House Conference on Food, Nutrition and Health.

Hursh, M.D. Consultant, National Dairy Council National Nutrition Con sortium has been formed by four organizations—the American Institute of Nutrition, the American Society for Clinical Nutrition, the American Dietetic Association, and the Institute of- Food Technologists. Others, I feel sure, will join or be involved in the consortium’s deliberations. This would mean the 40,000 members of the original four groups will be augmented by still more professionals and thus the resources of the whole movement will be greater to bring about a national nutrition policy. HKje First StaaAbung, Problem is Complex No one believes the development of such a policy should be done by food scientists and nutritionists alone. The problem is too complex for that. But these professionals must play an important-role. Political sensitivity to the problem is indicated in the recent announcement of the U.S. Senate Select Com mittee on Nutrition and Human Needs that it plans to hold a National Nutrition Policy Conference. It is tentatively set for this June. And a recent food-industry indication of alertness to the problem occurred at the National Dairy Council’s 59th annual meeting in Atlanta. More than 700 dairy industry and Dairy Council leaders attended sessions at which a national nutrition policy was discussed. Is it really all that im portant? Well, most people now agee in hind sight, that if we had a national energy MEMBER FD I C policy three would not now be an evergy crisis. And the problem of food and our nation’s best use of it for the good of all is certain to be an increasingly pressing problem for America.

What kinds of con siderations would a national nutrition policy cover? A surveillance system would be paramount—some way to keep track of how food prices and nutrition programs, for example, are affecting the adequacy of American diets. Programs and priorities also are needed for nutrition programs for disadvantaged groups, prevention of nutrition-related diseases, nutrition education, training of professional personnel, and support of nutrition research.
