Statement of the project's
aims
Nutrition reports are
the most important tool for the
accurate documentation of
population's nutritional status,
the identification of groups at
risk for developing nutrition
related disorders, and the
longitudinal monitoring of
nutrition related factors.
Several European countries are
issuing national nutrition
reports. The European Nutrition
and Health Report will collect
all relevant data which is
available from the participating
countries and convert them when
necessary to a consolidated
European Report as a basis for
future activities on the field of
public health and
nutrition.
The
report will deliver information
on the development of food
consumption during the past
decades and nutrient intake on
population group level, and -
where possible - the nutritional
status on the individual level.
The report will also deal with
current food quality/safety
issues.
