The notions of today
"Health and Welfare"
Go beyond nutrition-
And even beyond the food-
To embrace the health of
The planet and good
Of society.

Sustainability. The social consciousness.
Green Living. Well-being. The authenticity.
For the best nutrition. Balanced lifestyle.
What a difference a decade ago:
Now some of these were common phrases
Even part of the conversation of 10 years ago?
According to the research group Hartman,
Continues to demonstrate that the interest of the consumer
In the search for healthier lifestyles and greater
Quality of welfare is increasing, and
Consumers are on the lookout for companies,
Brands, Products, and services that can help
They fulfill their aspirations and goals.
And today the goal of a healthy lifestyle
Goes beyond diet and exercise for
Cover the whole concept of life.

Your Nutrition
And eat cake too

When it comes to food, the expectations of the Peoples
And assumptions come in all shapes and
Sizes: low in calories and low in fat, all-natural,
Whole grains, vegetarian. One Thing
We can all agree, however, is that
You should not have to give up the pleasure of
To eat better.
The idea that you have to deprive
It does not work for consumers who have been
Raised in the variety, convenience, taste,
And Value. A new quick service restaurant.
In Chicago called 180 captures the flavor
The essence of this theory with a menu divided
In two categories: Naughty (burgers,
 Wings of fried chicken, French fries) and Nice (salads,
Turkey-based on sandwiches, grilled fish).

Is the call of the customer, and even desserts
They are part of the equation, with small,
Individually in portions treated as cupcakes
Available for those who want to enjoy.

Good food, good life

All of this comes at a time when obesity rates
They are increasing and there is more pressure on food
And foodservice companies to practice fully
Disclosure of nutritional supplements. At the same time,
However, consumers are very tired of DCP
And dietary restrictions, and you are not sure of
What does it mean to information overload?

 "Many customers today are so confusing
About what is and is not healthy, it is
A relief for them to be able to deal
Wellness in a simpler form, balanced
Fashion," says Dean small, manage
Director of Synergy Restaurant Consultants.
"They are looking for foodservice operators
To Menu healthy foods that they can feel
Good on the order".

That thought certainly plays in "My
Plate," the successor of decades
The USDA Food Pyramid, which officials felt
Had grown too complex and tried to
Communicate too many facts on nutrition
Once. The new symbol of a balanced meal
It is a scheme of what should be in diners'
Plates when they return to sit at the table-
A simple circle divided into quadrants that
Contain fruits, vegetables, proteins, and grains.

The new guidelines advocate:

 avoiding oversize portions
 doing half of the fruit plate
And Vegetables
 doing half the grains Whole Grains
 Switch to low-fat or fat-free milk
 avoiding sugary drinks
 Choosing foods low in sodium

In addition to putting greater emphasis
On nutrition, the new dietary guidelines
For Americans, also advocates for increasing
Physical activity. The most remarkable thing, perhaps, is
My motherboard is the first piece of advice: Enjoy
His food, but eat less to balance the calories.

To value the flavor
In other words, it is not giving up
The things that you like, only eat sensibly
And practicing portion control. And this is
Especially true when people eat out
At home, according to a new study from the
The NPD Group.

 "Normally, the perception has been that
 Healthy eating for consumers means low
 Low in fat and calories, and our findings show
That the perception is not reality," says
The NPD Bonnie Riggs. "Descriptors such as
 More Natural or fresh will resonate with
Consumers that fewer calories." In addition,
The study revealed that consumers place a
High Value to taste if they are eating
Healthy eating or not, and some consumers
To equate healthy foods how not to be so tasty.

Strategies such as offering more fruits and
Vegetables, whole grain products menuing and
Proclaiming with healthy, authentic and clean label
(Not overly processed) products also
Appeal to consumers today.
