National Dairy Council Reviews ROSEMONT, lU.—“The U.S. departments of Health and Human Services and Agriculture and the committee members who repre sented them are to be congratu lated for their work in developing the 1995 Dietary Guidelines for Americans,” said Greg Miller, Ph.D., F.A.C.N., vice president of nutrition research for the National Dairy Council®. “Given the growing body of nutrition information and the ever changing lifestyles of Americans, the new guidelines represent a complex but important step to ward directing our country’s eat ing habits.” The 1995 edition of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, as released recently, are intended to be the primary source of dietary information for Americans over FOR THE EARTH ISN’T SO GOOD.

To reflect new nutritional findings, the guidelines are reviewed and revised, if neces sary, every five years. “As the new guidelines are put to use,” added Miller, “we’re hopeful future discussions will build upon today’s announcement by taking into consideration the many studies which indicate that children have different nutritional needs than adults.” In a recent National Dairy Council survey, 72 percent of health care and nutrition profes sionals surveyed said separate dietary guidelines for children would be useful. Several national nutrition organizations share this belief, including The American Dietetic Association, the Ameri can Institute of Nutrition, the National Dairy Council and the WHEN GOOD American College of Nutrition. “Nutritional guidelines for children need to consider several aspects even when dealing with health maintenance." said Carolyn Abitbol, M.D., F.A.A.P., F.A.C.N., representative of the American College of Nutrition. "The different phases of growth infancy, childhood and adoles cence—should be addressed with attention towards physical, neuro logical and emotional growth.” These phases of growth ate rec ognized in the National Institutes of Health Consensus Statement on Optimal Calcium Intake. The statement recommends varying levels of calcium intake through out an individual’s life. For example, NIH recommends that a child of five years of age consume 800 mg of calcium daily.
