National Nutrition Summit: Information Resources

The National Nutrition Summit, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will be held on May 30 and 31, 2000 in Washington, DC. The Summit will provide an opportunity to highlight accomplishments since the 1969 White House Conference in the areas of food security, nutrition, and health. The Summit will identify continuing challenges and emerging opportunities for the Nation in these areas and will focus on nutrition and lifestyle issues across the lifespan, especially those related to the national epidemic of overweight and obesity.

The two day program of the National Nutrition Summit will consist of ten concurrent sessions. Each participant of the meeting will attend one of the sessions. During these sessions the participants will identify the current state of the topic and identify where new policies and research funding are needed. To assist participants in preparing for the breakout sessions, this bibliography was developed by the staff of the National Library of Medicine (NLM). The purpose of the bibliography is to provide an overview and background and is not comprehensive on the various topics. The references consist of citations from the professional journal and monographic literature, prominent newspapers, legal materials, and links to Internet sites. The focus of the literature cited is mostly U.S. centered with limited citations on world hunger and nutrition issues. Most of the citations are in English. The date coverage of the literature is 1970 to the present to provide an overview of the literature since the last White House Conference on Nutrition. The citations are grouped by the topics of the ten concurrent sessions; citations may be found in more than one category. Many journal citations which have been retrieved from the NLM PubMed system also contain links to the PubMed record so that abstracts may be obtained if available.

The editors would like to express their appreciation for editing assistance completed by Twann Dailey, Martha Glock, and Phyllis Levine of the Reference Section, National Library of Medicine, in the development of this bibliography.
