Abstract

In Elaine Fullard's opinion, many people are ignorant about nutrition because the health professionals and teachers fail to communicate the right information. She believes that the recommendations for dietary change given in Eating for Health, the DHSS publication, assume too high a level of nutrition knowledge among the general public, a belief confirmed in a survey she carried out herself among a small random sample of adults. Miss Fullard found that there was not only ignorance about the constituents and functions of everyday foods, but also how to use less familiar food items in family meals.
