Patients may not be getting all the nutrients they need. You can help them eat their way to better health.

Poor or inadequate diets are linked to four of the top 10 causes of death: heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes. During a nutritional intake assessment, the Healthy Eating Index for 1999-2000, researchers for the Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion noted that only 10% of the U.S. population had an adequate diet, 74% had in-adequate nutrient intake, and 16% were rated to have a poor diet, markedly increasing the risk for major health problems.
