The Food and Nutrition Board was established in 1940 to study issues of national importance pertaining to the safety and adequacy of the nation's food supply, to establish principles and guidelines for adequate nutrition, and to render authoritative judgment on the relationships among food intake, nutrition, and health, at the request of various agencies.
The Food and Nutrition Board does not maintain a reference or resource center that can respond to individual questions about nutrition or requests for publications or materials. For general food and nutrition information, please visit www.nutrition.gov. Health professionals and educators seeking food and nutrition information, please visit http:fnic.nal.usda.gov.
