Can you tell me what the typical American diet is?
user
Studies have found that the typical American diet generally consists of eating processed, pre-packaged foods as well as an increased consumption of animal-based products such as meat, dairy and eggs. The American diet is often high in sodium, refined carbohydrates and added sugars, and tends to be low in whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Unfortunately most Americans do not consume an adequate amount of fiber, lean protein or essential vitamins and minerals from their diets. This dietary pattern can put people at risk for certain chronic health problems like heart disease, obesity and diabetes. It is important for individuals to adhere to a balanced diet that consists of a variety of nutritious foods like whole grains, fruits and vegetables in order to get the necessary nutrients they need for optimal health.
