Sound Bites A Nutrition Podcast
Health & Fitness:Nutrition
Greater understanding of how a wide variety of carbohydrate foods impact nutrition and health within the context of culturally inclusive diets is imperative to create dietary guidance that is relevant to all Americans. Recognition of these foods, especially as our population continues to diversify, is part of the appeal and utility of a new scoring system that helps define high-quality carbohydrate-containing foods.
While there are many ways to define carbohydrate quality, none of the existing strategies, such as glycemic index and others focused on carb/fiber/sugar ratios, look beyond the carbohydrate content and address other nutrients of public health concern--and ones that primarily come from carb-containing foods, such as potassium and sodium.
Tune into this episode to guests Dr. Drewnowski & Dr. Rodriguez to learn about:
· the increasing diversity of the United States population
· consumer confusion about the role of carbohydrates in the diet
· how carbohydrate foods provide important nutrients beyond fiber and sugar
· limitations of the glycemic index and other tools to measure carbohydrate quality
· how the research community recognizes the need for a globally accepted definition of carbohydrate quality as well as a simple, effective tool to help people make more nutritious food choices
· the development and applicability of a new carbohydrate food scoring system
· two published manuscripts introducing the new scoring system and a third manuscript pending publication that demonstrates how the tool aligns with the DGAs and a variety of healthy eating patterns and affordable eating patterns
