摘要
Inherent in the term 'consumer' is the act of buying foods as well as eating them. In a free market economy, foods must be profitable as well as nutritious. The Dirtary Guidelines for Americans have profound economic implications: they can affect food sales and can also be used as a marketing tool. These consequences constitute a primary reason why dietary guidelines are worded so carefully. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
