What is CDC’s nutrition report?
The National Report on Biochemical Indicators of Diet and Nutrition in the U.S. Population 1999-2002 is a first-of-its-kind report that provides a snapshot of the U.S. population’s nutritional status by age, sex, and race/ethnicity. It is the first CDC publication that offers information on a wide range of biochemical indicators in a single document. The goal of the report is to improve our understanding of the levels of biochemical indicators of diet and nutrition in the general U.S. population and in selected sub-populations.
