Abstract

Since the 1970s our knowledge of the relationship between diet, health, and the risk of chronic diseases of lifestyle has increased tremendously. Based on this information, we can now characterize the essential features of a healthy diet, meaning one that assists in achieving optimal health and minimizes risk of chronic disease. This chapter summarizes the relationship between diet, health, and risk of disease. Detailed information is presented in other chapters.
