PREFACE AS A NATION WE ARE LITERALLY killing ourselves through our poor eating habits. America produces food-good food-in abundance. There is no lack of information in this country about what constitutes sound dietary habits， and consequently good health， but we ignore it. We have instead chosen to go along with what seems easier in this decade on the go: \"fast food，\" nutritionally empty food， meals on the run， fad diets. The result， of course， is that we are living shorter and less vigorous lives than all reason and available knowledge says we should. I wrote this book because of my deep and continuing concern with the sociological and psychological influences on individuals and on families which are contributing to poor diet and poor health. In so doing I have drawn principally upon two sources: my experiences as a career nutritionist and the Dietary Goals newly established by the United States Senate Select Committee for Nutrition and Human Needs. As a food and nutrition consultant for the American National Red Cross， I have had opportunities to work extensively in this country and abroad. I have helped develop community nutrition programs. As a Red Cross team member I have helped to bandage the wounds-physical， mental and emotional-of people caught up in calamity. During disasters I have gained firsthand knowledge of the problems that confront American families today， thereby broadening my personal experience with contemporary lifestyles， food habits and nutritional awareness.
