More than one-third of the U.S. adult population is considered obese, a figure that has more than doubled since the mid-1970s. Among children, obesity rates have more than tripled over the same period. Not only is obesity associated with numerous medical complications, but it incurs significant economic cost. At its simplest, obesity is a result of an energy imbalance, with obese (and overweight) people consuming more energy (calories) than they are expending. During the last 10-20 years, behavioral scientists have made significant progress toward building an evidence base for understanding what drives energy imbalance in overweight and obese individuals. Meanwhile, food scientists have been tapping into this growing evidence base to improve existing technologies and create new technologies that can be applied to alter the food supply in ways that reduce the obesity burden on the American population. Leveraging food technology for obesity prevention and reduction effort examines the complexity of human eating behavior and explores ways in which the food industry can continue to leverage modern food processing technologies to influence energy intake. The report also examines the opportunities and challenges of altering the food supply--both at home and outside the home--and outlines lessons learned, best practices, and next steps."--Publisher's description. 606 $aObesity$xPrevention$vCongresses 606 $aOverweight persons$xHealth and hygiene$vCongresses 606 $aFood industry and trade$vCongresses 615 0$aObesity$xPrevention 615 0$aOverweight persons$xHealth and hygiene 615 0$aFood industry and trade 676 $a362.196/39800973 701 $aPray$b Leslie A$0880793 701 $aPillsbury$b Laura$f1984-$01488661 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bFood Forum. 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bFood and Nutrition Board. 712 12$aLeveraging Food Technology for Obesity Prevention and Reduction Efforts$f(2010 :$eWashington, D.C.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781607903321 996 $aLeveraging food technology for obesity prevention and reduction effort$93754756 997 $aUNINA
