First, I'm a big guy with a fast metabolism, so that helps right off the bat. I also walk a lot. I walk at least 2½ miles everyday, sometimes more. I also have a 22-month-old at home, who is very active and keeps me active in the morning, evening, and throughout the day on weekends. I also don't eat a lot at home. Generally, if I do have dinner, that is the only meal I eat at home. The rest of my meals happen when I am \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2018/01/03/what-does-a-test-cook-eat-all-day-anyway/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\"grazing\" here at work\u003c/a>. This also means that all the food I eat is freshly prepared (for the most part) and not a prepackaged or from-frozen meal that might be loaded with sodium and other less-than-nice ingredients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another thing: portion control. For a tasting, I may only have a tiny bowl of soup, hardly a portion one would get in a restaurant or eat for a meal. And despite being known for having a massive sweet tusk (hehe), I try to limit my sugar intake. While there may be recipes, chapters, or books that are devoted to all things sweet, those tend to be few and far between, so I'm more able to control my sugar intake. I drink any tea or \u003ca href=\"https://www.americastestkitchen.com/taste_tests/581-supermarket-medium-roast-coffee\">coffee\u003c/a> black; I don't drink any soda; I avoid most candy.

First, I'm a big guy with a fast metabolism, so that helps right off the bat. I also walk a lot. I walk at least 2½ miles everyday, sometimes more. I also have a 22-month-old at home, who is very active and keeps me active in the morning, evening, and throughout the day on weekends. I also don't eat a lot at home. Generally, if I do have dinner, that is the only meal I eat at home. The rest of my meals happen when I am \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2018/01/03/what-does-a-test-cook-eat-all-day-anyway/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\"grazing\" here at work\u003c/a>. This also means that all the food I eat is freshly prepared (for the most part) and not a prepackaged or from-frozen meal that might be loaded with sodium and other less-than-nice ingredients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another thing: portion control. For a tasting, I may only have a tiny bowl of soup, hardly a portion one would get in a restaurant or eat for a meal. And despite being known for having a massive sweet tusk (hehe), I try to limit my sugar intake. While there may be recipes, chapters, or books that are devoted to all things sweet, those tend to be few and far between, so I'm more able to control my sugar intake. I drink any tea or \u003ca href=\"https://www.americastestkitchen.com/taste_tests/581-supermarket-medium-roast-coffee\">coffee\u003c/a> black; I don't drink any soda; I avoid most candy.

Are they a healthy option?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The maker of Kind bars thinks so. The company has used the phrase \"healthy and tasty\" on some of its products that contain lots of nuts. But, here's the issue: The bars contained too much fat to meet the Food and Drug Administration's strict low-fat definition of healthy. So, as we \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/05/10/477514200/why-the-fda-is-reevaluating-the-nutty-definition-of-healthy-food\">reported last May\u003c/a>, the company helped launch a petition to challenge the status quo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now the FDA has \u003ca href=\"http://www.fda.gov/Food/GuidanceRegulation/GuidanceDocumentsRegulatoryInformation/LabelingNutrition/ucm520695.htm\">begun the process of redefining the term\u003c/a> \"healthy\" on food labels. Policymakers are looking for input from food makers, health experts and the public. You can weigh in with your ideas about what factors and criteria should be used for the new definition. (\u003ca href=\"http://www.regulations.gov/\">Submit \u003c/a>electronic comments directly to the FDA).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As our understanding about nutrition has evolved, we need to make sure the definition for the 'healthy' labeling claim stays up to date,\" writes Douglas Balentine, who directs the Office of Nutrition and Food Labeling at the FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, how has nutrition science — and the thinking about what's healthful — evolved?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let's start with fat. The \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/03/28/295332576/why-we-got-fatter-during-the-fat-free-food-boom\">fat-free era\u003c/a> has come and gone. \"The most recent public health recommendations now focus on type of fat, rather than amount of fat,\" Balentine writes in a blog post for the FDA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, the type of fats found in \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2015/01/07/375653050/take-a-swipe-at-bad-cholesterol-eat-an-avocado-a-day\">avocados \u003c/a>and \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?storyId=246549388\">nuts \u003c/a>are considered healthful fats. We're encouraged to eat more plant-based fats and omega-3s from fatty fish, whereas the U.S. Dietary Guidelines\u003ca href=\"https://health.gov/dietaryguidelines/2015/guidelines/chapter-1/key-recommendations/\"> recommend\u003c/a> limiting saturated fats — the type of fat found in meat and other animal products — to less than 10 percent of your total daily calorie intake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The modernized definition of \"healthy\" will also likely address sugar content. The FDA is taking into account all of the newer evidence \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/02/03/271130613/sweet-tooth-gone-bad-why-22-teaspoons-of-sugar-per-day-is-deadly\">linking\u003c/a> excessive sugar intake to heart disease and obesity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our thinking about sugars has changed,\" Balentine told us, \"so I would think the amount of sugar in products is something we [will] take into account.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an ideal world, people wouldn't need labels to signal which food choices are healthful. As nutrition guru \u003ca href=\"http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/faculty/Marion_Nestle\">Marion Nestle\u003c/a> of New York University, tells us, \"if people want to eat healthfully, we know how to do that. That's eating lots of fruits, vegetables and whole grains.\" And she says we should eat packaged and processed foods in much smaller amounts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think we should have health claims [on food packages] at all,\" Nestle tells us. \"They're inherently misleading,\" because food companies use them as a marketing tool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the FDA's Douglas Balentine pushes back, pointing out that Americans are looking for information on food packages to help them make better decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The typical consumer makes a purchase decision in three to five seconds.

Some give up on losing weight altogether, Roberts adds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many people do still want to lose weight, and increasingly they're hoping good nutrition and \"healthy eating\" will get them there, says R.J. Hottovy, a senior equity analyst with market research firm Morningstar. \"Consumers are looking for a more holistic, more health and wellness approach,\" he says. \"The shift in food trends is toward fresher and more natural ingredients.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The problem is there's a lot of disagreement over what a healthy, well-balanced meal looks like. Half of the people in Mintel's survey said they didn't know what to think about nutrition and wellness information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we've reported, even the federal government isn't sure what \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2015/11/11/455506222/whats-natural-food-the-government-isnt-sure-and-wants-your-input\">\"natural\u003c/a>\" means. And increasingly consumers have to contend with terms like \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2013/03/09/173840841/gluten-goodbye-one-third-of-americans-say-theyre-trying-to-shun-it\">gluten-free\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2015/07/29/426743443/to-shed-pounds-going-vegetarian-or-vegan-may-help\">vegan\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2015/08/19/432774389/gmos-are-becoming-a-proxy-for-bigger-concerns-about-the-food-system\">non-GMO\u003c/a> in the grocery store. These and other restrictive notions of eating have been quick to catch on, but often don't have consistent scientific evidence backing them up as healthful or effective for weight loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roberts, who also founded a weight loss start-up called \u003ca href=\"https://www.theidiet.com/\">iDiet \u003c/a>but says she doesn't currently make money from it, observes that food companies are taking advantage of the chaos. \"Companies are bombarding [consumers] with gluten-free, sugar-free, cholesterol-free, and it's got us to a very bad place because people don't know what to think anymore,\" she says. \"I think what [consumers] want to do is lose weight by eating sensibly. That's the holy grail of weight loss, and\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>the companies say, 'We'll lock into that.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while Weight Watchers' point system emphasizes \"natural\" fare and home-cooked meals, \u003ca href=\"http://www.eatyourbest.com/\">it's still manufacturing\u003c/a> processed, high-sodium, low-fiber products.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Julie Lehman, marketing director for Lean Cuisine, the company, which is owned by Nestle, has put new labels on products that were already cholesterol-free or gluten-free without changing their formulations. \"Lean Cuisine is an emblem of the diet culture that we've all grown up with. We know that and we want to walk away from that and focus on eating well and eating healthy,\" she says. The brand has added \"No Preservatives\" and \"Gluten-Free\" and \"Non-GMO\" labels and a new line of frozen meals, certified organic by the nonprofit Oregon Tilth. \"Consumers are demanding some of these things, and we want to offer it to them,\" Lehman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roberts is unconvinced. She doesn't see the products getting any healthier. \"They can relabel them, but the meals are not any different. If you open a box of Lean Cuisine or something like that, you'll see about a quarter cup of veggies in there. Is that an outstandingly healthy meal? By my standards, it's not.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People will still be hungry and still feel deprived, and may ultimately not meet weight loss goals, she says. \"They'll give healthy eating a bad name just as they gave dieting a bad name.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the evidence suggests that a variety of different strategies may help individuals lose weight. For some people, a pattern of eating like \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/01/05/462036387/best-diets-2016-from-fastest-weight-loss-to-conquering-cravings\">DASH \u003c/a>might be best.

Half of the people in Mintel's survey said they didn't know what to think about nutrition and wellness information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we've reported, even the federal government isn't sure what \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2015/11/11/455506222/whats-natural-food-the-government-isnt-sure-and-wants-your-input\">\"natural\u003c/a>\" means.

That's the holy grail of weight loss, and\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>the companies say, 'We'll lock into that.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while Weight Watchers' point system emphasizes \"natural\" fare and home-cooked meals, \u003ca href=\"http://www.eatyourbest.com/\">it's still manufacturing\u003c/a> processed, high-sodium, low-fiber products.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Julie Lehman, marketing director for Lean Cuisine, the company, which is owned by Nestle, has put new labels on products that were already cholesterol-free or gluten-free without changing their formulations. \"Lean Cuisine is an emblem of the diet culture that we've all grown up with. We know that and we want to walk away from that and focus on eating well and eating healthy,\" she says. The brand has added \"No Preservatives\" and \"Gluten-Free\" and \"Non-GMO\" labels and a new line of frozen meals, certified organic by the nonprofit Oregon Tilth. \"Consumers are demanding some of these things, and we want to offer it to them,\" Lehman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Roberts is unconvinced. She doesn't see the products getting any healthier. \"They can relabel them, but the meals are not any different. If you open a box of Lean Cuisine or something like that, you'll see about a quarter cup of veggies in there. Is that an outstandingly healthy meal? By my standards, it's not.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People will still be hungry and still feel deprived, and may ultimately not meet weight loss goals, she says. \"They'll give healthy eating a bad name just as they gave dieting a bad name.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the evidence suggests that a variety of different strategies may help individuals lose weight.
