Food-Based Dietary Guidelines

About

The aim of this guidance is to enable national programmes and policy makers to develop Food-Based Dietary Guidelines (FBDGs). FBDGs educate consumers and provide direction on programs and policies aiming to achieve healthy diets for all, particularly children of all ages and women. Hence, it should be rooted on sound evidence, public health and nutrition priorities, food production and consumption patterns, sociocultural influences, food composition data, and accessibility.
