  • "With the connection between diet and health well established, food manufacturers have been quick to design products that appeal to the health-conscious consumer. In this program, we explore the boom in so-called "functional foods," such as vitamin-B-enriched breakfast cereals, calcium-enriched milk, and vitamin-enriched fruit juices. We examine functional foods of the past and present, and some potential future products. Comparisons are made between the benefits of eating functional food products and eating a variety of less processed, and often less expensive, foods. The value of nutritional information on food labels is explained, in particular the recommended daily intakes, or RDIs--and we learn about the legal constraints on the way functional foods can be promoted and labeled."
