Here are a few questions that Larry Kushi, Kaiser Permenante Associate Director of Research, will address this coming Wednesday evening:
- How and why have USDA nutritional guidelines changed over the years?
- What is the difference between USDA current Pyramid, Mediterranean Traditional Pyramid, and Asian Traditional Pyramid?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages of each diet? (i.e., health challenges – cancer, stroke, etc)
- How do heredity, climate, ethnic, and cultural influences influence dietary needs?
- Underlying factors: quality of produce (organic/inorganic, how food is processed, etc)
- Diabetes is rampant, both in our community, and in the U.S. It also leads to other health challenges. What diet is best for that health challenge?
