What American women know...and want to know about nutrition
1976
Alston, Elizabeth | Hemlepp, Catherine
A Redbook Gallop national study of women food shoppers evidenced the consumer's heightened concern about nutrition. The study showed that women are enthusiastic about the "chore" of feeding their families and maintain a high degree of diligence in striving for balanced meals. However, half the women said they had made no changes in their families' diets for nutritional reasons. Confusion about nutrition and the inability to properly use the limited information currently available accounted for this dichotomy. Concentrated public education programs on the harmful effects of sugar, cholesterol and red dye number 2 have been the most effective in creating positive dietary changes; massive programs of this nature are proposed in other areas concerning nutrition.
