  5. The Science Behind Healthy Eating Patterns • Systematic reviews of scientific research • To examine relationships between the overall eating pattern, including its constituent foods, beverages, and nutrients, and health outcomes. • Food pattern modeling • To assess how well various combinations and amounts of foods from all food groups would result in healthy eating patterns to help meet nutrient needs and accommodate limits. • Analyses of current intakes • To identify areas of potential public health concern and ensure recommended eating patterns are realistic and attainable. Findings were integrated so that amounts recommended reflect eating patterns associated with positive health outcomes and that support nutrient adequacy. For additional information on the science behind healthy eating patterns, see the Scientific Report of the 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee

  7. Key Elements of Healthy Eating Patterns:Key Recommendations A healthy eating pattern includes: A variety of vegetables from all of the subgroups—dark green, red and orange, legumes (beans and peas), starchy, and other Fruits, especially whole fruits Grains, at least half of which are whole grains Fat-free or low-fat dairy, including milk, yogurt, cheese, and/or fortified soy beverages A variety of protein foods, including seafood, lean meats and poultry, eggs, legumes (beans and peas), and nuts, seeds, and soy products Oils A healthy eating pattern limits: Saturated fats and trans fats, added sugars, and sodium

  8. Key Elements of Healthy Eating Patterns:Key Recommendations (cont.) Key Recommendations that are quantitative are provided for several components of the diet that should be limited. Consume less than 10 percent of calories per day from added sugars Consume less than 10 percent of calories per day from saturated fats Consume less than 2,300 milligrams (mg) per day of sodium (or age- and sex-appropriate Tolerable Upper Intake Levels (ULs))

  26. Shifts to Align with Healthy Eating Patterns • USDA Food Plans include amounts that reflect eating patterns associated with positive health outcomes. • Vegetables: Most young children and adult women fall short of recommended intakes. • Fruit: Average intakes among children fall within the recommendations, however adult women have intakes that fall short of recommended intakes. • Whole grains: Most young children and women do not consume recommended amounts of whole grains. • Dairy: Only 1-3 year olds have average intakes that fall within the recommendations for the dairy food group. • Protein foods: A large majority of the population falls short of the seafood recommendation. • Amounts of added sugar and saturated fat must be lower than 10% of total energy intake to stay within calorie limits.
