Nutrient content/Health properties
Food is not just energy since it contains a mixture of nutrients (e.g.carbohydrates, proteins, fat, vitamins etc.)
which are necessary for all people,in different amounts. US and EU consumers are trying to improve their diets
in ways that will improve their health. Consumption of low fat food and the falling consumption of eggs
(due to cholesterol concerns) are evidence of this new trend. However,
improvements in diet are not adequate and obesity is now a global epidemic.
