nutrition policy. However, the U.S. does have food assistance programs, national
nutrition and health objectives as found in the Healthy People 2020 initiative,
regulations to safeguard the food supply and ensure the proper handling of food
products, dietary guidance systems, monitoring and surveillance programs, and
food labeling legislation.

82. Discuss the history of the food and nutrition consumption surveys.
ANSWER: The U.S. government has been involved in tracking certain elements of the food
supply and food consumption for the last century, beginning with the USDA’s
Food Supply Series undertaken in 1909. In the 1930s, the first USDA Household
Food Consumption Survey was conducted. In 1965, this survey became known as
the Nationwide Food Consumption Survey. The Ten-State Nutrition Survey was
conducted between 1968 and 1970. In the 1970s other surveys, such as the
NHANES I and Pediatric Nutrition Surveillance System, were administered. In the
1980s and 1990s, NHANES II, NHANES III, and the HHANES studies were
conducted. In 1990, legislation was passed that established the NNMRRP, which
includes more than 50 surveillance activities that monitor and evaluate the health
and nutritional issues of the U.S. population. Currently, the What We Eat in
America Survey and the Total Diet Study are utilized.

83. Explain the goals and purpose of the National Nutrition Monitoring and Related Research Program
(NNMRRP).
ANSWER: The NNMRRP takes a multidisciplinary approach to monitoring the
nutritional and health status of Americans in general and of high-risk
groups, such as low-income families, pregnant women, and minorities.
The USDA and DHHS work together to implement and coordinate the
activities. The NNMRRP includes all data collection and analysis activities
of the federal government related to (1) measuring the health and
nutritional status, food consumption, dietary knowledge, and attitudes
about diet and health of the U.S. population; and (2) measuring food

consumption and the quality of the food supply.


The goals of the NNMRRP include the following:

a. Provide the scientific foundation for the maintenance and


improvement of the nutritional status of the U.S. population and
the nutritional quality and healthfulness of the national food
supply.
b. Collect, analyze, and disseminate timely data on the nutritional and
dietary status of the U.S. population, the nutritional quality of the
food supply, food consumption patterns, and consumer knowledge
and attitudes concerning nutrition.
c. Identify high-risk groups and geographical areas, as well as
nutrition-related problems and trends, to facilitate prompt
implementation of nutrition intervention activities.
d. Establish national baseline data and develop and improve uniform
standards, methods, criteria, policies, and procedures for nutrition
monitoring.
e. Provide data for evaluating the implications of changes in agricultural
policy related to food production, processing, and distribution that may
affect the nutritional quality and healthfulness of the U.S. food supply.

84. What are the five areas of the NNMRRP surveys? Provide an example of their interrelatedness.
ANSWER: The NNMRRP surveys are grouped into five areas: nutritional status and nutrition-
related health measurements; food and nutrient consumption; knowledge, attitudes,
and behavior assessment; food composition and nutrient databases; and food supply
determinations. Two examples illustrating their interrelatedness include: (1) An
individual’s health and nutritional status is influenced by his or her food intake,
which includes the food prepared and eaten at home and away from the home. (2)
Food intake is influenced by an individual’s knowledge about the relationship
between diet and health, use of supplements, nutrient requirements, and attitudes
about food and dietary and health practices.

85. Describe how the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI) differ from the Recommended Dietary Allowances
(RDA).
ANSWER: The RDA is just one of the DRIs. The RDA is the average daily amount of a
nutrient that is sufficient to meet the nutrient needs of 97%-98% of healthy
individuals of a specific age and gender. The DRIs are a set of reference values for
energy and nutrients that can be used for planning and assessing diets for healthy
people. The DRIs include the Estimated Average Requirements, the Recommended
Dietary Allowances, the Adequate Intakes, and the Tolerable Upper Intake Levels.

86. Explain how the dietary recommendations of the Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health
Organization (FAO/WHO) differ from the Dietary Reference Intakes.
ANSWER: The FAO and WHO recommendations are considered sufficient for the
maintenance of health in nearly all people. They differ from the DRIs because they
are based on slightly different judgment factors and serve different purposes. The
FAO/WHO recommendations take into consideration people worldwide; however,
for the most part, the various recommendations fall within the same general range.

87. What do the nutrition survey results suggest about the nutritional status of Americans?
ANSWER: Overall, survey results suggest that we are well nourished, but are generally over
fat, under-exercised, and beset to some extent with nutrient deficiencies. Generally
speaking, we do not consume enough fruits, vegetables, and dairy. We tend to be
somewhat knowledgeable about nutrition, but our behaviors do not illustrate that.

91. Differentiate among nutrition screening, nutrition assessment, nutrition monitoring, and nutrition
surveillance.
ANSWER: Essentially the differences are in the timing of data collection, the extent
and nature of the data collected, and the purpose or use of the
data. Nutrition screening is a system that identifies specific individuals for
nutrition or public health intervention, often at the community
level. Nutrition assessment is the measurement of indicators of dietary
status and nutrition-related health status to identify the possible
occurrence, nature, and extent of impaired nutritional status (ranging
from deficiency to toxicity). Nutrition monitoring is the assessment of
dietary or nutritional status at intermittent times with the aim of detecting
changes in dietary or nutritional status. Nutrition surveillance is the
continuous assessment of nutritional status for the purpose of detecting changes in
trends or distributions so that corrective measures can be taken.

92. Define public health surveillance and discuss its purpose.


ANSWER: Public health surveillance is the ongoing, systematic collection, analysis, and
interpretation of data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of
public health practice, closely integrated with the timely dissemination of these
data to those responsible for prevention and control. Its purpose is to monitor the
health and nutritional status of a population as a means of deciding how to allocate
scarce resources, enhance the quality of life, and improve productivity.
