  • Latest findings on nutrition, diet, and disease prevention

Nutrition:

Maintaining a healthy diet, and using diet in combination with exercise to maintain a healthy weight, can help lower the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, and many kinds of cancer. This area of Johns Hopkins Health Alerts provides the very latest findings on nutrition and disease prevention, and offers expert, practical guidance on how to enjoy a health-promoting diet.

Most people recognize the importance of a healthy diet, and yet they do not always follow a healthy diet. A recent report issued by the Congressional General Accounting Office notes that only 23% of Americans get their recommended servings of fruit and only 41% get their recommended servings of vegetables. Johns Hopkins experts address this issue and and counters it with simple, effective strategies for achieving good nutrition.

Nutrition and Weight Control Glossary

The Johns Hopkins Health Alerts Nutrition and Weight Control area is derived from our monthly newsletter Johns Hopkins Health After 50, and annual review of nutrition and weight control-related research, The Johns Hopkins Nutrition and Weight Control White Paper.
