What Is This “New Nutrition” I Keep Hearing About?
Question by Bleu Diamond-Phillips: What is this “new nutrition” I keep hearing about?
My younger brother was recently deemed “borderline-obese” by his physician, and placed on a strict diet. Since I’m his guardian, I’m obligated to seriously stay on him about this. My brother tells me that he’s been placed on the “new nutrition” diet, that’s supposed to cover all of the major food groups. He explained it to me like this: a spicy chipotle chicken sandwich covers the daily protein and grain requirements; a side of french fries covers the daily vegetable requirement; a large glass of fruit punch covers the daily fruit requirement; and a handful of Oreo cookies cover the daily sugar requirement (I didn’t even know there was a daily sugar requirement). I tried to contact the physician directly, but haven’t been able to reach him at the telephone number given to me by my brother. I sorta get the feeling that I’m being deceived. Is this “new nutrition” legit?
