Preface Animal products have always been a mainstay of the American diet, and thanks to new procluction technologies, a wider range of products are available today than ever before. About 36 percent of the food energy and between 36 and 100 percent of each of the major nutrients in the foot! supply come from animal products. But they also contribute more than half the total fat, nearly three-fourths of the saturated fatty acids, and all the cholesterol~ietary components that may increase the risk of heart disease and cancer for some individuals. The link between diet, the maintenance of health, and the development of chronic disease has become increasingly evident in recent years. The advice from national health organizations has become more focused, identifying dietary excesses of calories, fat, saturated fatty acids, and cholesterol and deficiencies of iron and calcium as adversely affecting the health of the people in the United States. Although fecleral surveys show that healthful trends in diet are improving, many individuals still must make substantial changes to meet current recommendations. New technologies and production methods appear to hoIcT promise for improving the nutritional attributes of animal products. Recent research has shown that the use of growth hormone in beef and pork may result in increased feed efficiency in the live animal and an improved lean to fat ratio in the carcass. Producers may soon be using the latest biotechnology methods to enhance growth and improve carcass quality, and processors are aIreacly applying new techniques such as restructuring, ultrafiltration, enzymatic modification, and supercritical fluid or solvent extraction to the manufacture of new animal products. In January 1985, the U. S. Department of Agriculture asked the National Research Council's Board on Agriculture to evaluate the effectiveness of new technologies, their possible current and future applications, their effect on regulatory policies, and their potential benefits to the consumer. Specifically, the board's charge was to- ~ Identify the targets for preferred nutritional characteristics of animal products, based on dietary recommendations of national health organizations; v

PREFACE · Quantify current consumption patterns of animal products using fecleral dietary surveys and food supply (lata; · Assess current options available to consumers and existing technologies to alter the characteristics of animal products; · Develop a strategy for constructive change consistent with contemporary dietary recommendations; and · Develop a strategy to foster widespread adoption of economical and practical innovations, taking into account existing ant! possible future economic incentives and disincentives for adherence. To accomplish these objectives, the board convened the Committee on Technological Options to Improve the Nutritional Attributes of Animal Products. The committee held nine meetings between December 1985 and February 1987 to gather information and hear testimony from experts. One meeting was held as a public session to solicit input from organizations, special interest and consumer groups, and indivicluals. In addition, scientific papers presenter] at two workshops provided the committee with new information and research results on improved production practices and technologies to alter growth. This report contains the committee's analyses of food supply and dietary data on consumption patterns; identification of targets for change in the nutritional composition of animal products; ant] recommendations on marketing and policy issues and research imperatives. The reader shouIc3 note that throughout the report, the committee defines the term animal products as all foods derived from animals. Chapters 1, 2, and 3 define the role of animal products in the diet, review dietary recommendations from the major health organizations, and identify specific levels, or targets, of nutrients for a healthful diet. Chapter 4 presents data from national surveys on changing consumer attitudes toward nutrition and food practices. It also describes traditional ant] nutritionally modifier} versions of ciairy products, meats, poultry, and fish ant] applies these options in example flirts to meet the target levels of nutrients defined in Chapter 1. Chapter 5 identifies policies and programs that either impe(le further progress or that should be refocused to maximize the benefits of dietary choice. Chapter 6 defines promising technologies in production and manufacturing for creating animal products that would better match the targeted levels of nutrients. The committee's recommendations will require the efforts and cooperation of many groups, whether the issues relate to providing consumers with better nutrition information, consolidating data bases, or developing advertising and promotional guidelines. Current cooperative efforts are to be commended; however, the committee believes that federal agencies, private industry, and academia can work together more effectively by seizing new opportunities to jointly address many of the issues discussed in this report. The American marketplace is a dynamic forum in which producers have historically responded to consumer demand by providing an ever-growing array of products. It is clear that consumers are willing to try new kinds of foods, including highly processed or newly fabricated products that differ from traditional versions. As scientific evidence mounts implicating specific dietary components in the development of major diseases, the food industry must respond by providing new products that match current scientific knowledge. The committee hopes this report will aid both private and federal sources in meeting this challenge. DAVID 1~. CALL Chairman
