3 o The nutrients that come from that food group are not meeting their intake needs, and need to be found in another source Describe nutrition density and energy density? What factors determine energy density and nutrient density o Nutrition density Amount of nutrients compared to calories o Energy density Amount of calories compared to weight What are the Dietary Guidelines for Americans?
