NCAHF Position Paper on Nutrition Diploma Mills in California Special Terms FOOD FADDISM : A general term used to designate nutrition nonsense. Food faddism is characterized as much by its exaggerations as absolute errors about nutrition and diet. QUACK : "Anyone who promotes medical schemes or remedies known to be false, or which are unproven, for a profit."* (U.S. House of Representatives, May, 1984). *In the opinion of the NCAHF offering such goods or services for a donation or through alleged "nonprofit" schemes still constitutes quackery. NUTRITION QUACKERY : Utilizing invalid methods for assessing an individual's nutritional status, or promoting the use of food supplements, nutrition substances or special diets that lack reasonable scientific evidence of safety and effectiveness to cure, treat or prevent disease, increase longevity, enhance physical, sexual, or mental performance. DEGREE MILL : "An organization that awards degrees without requiring its students to meet educational standards for such degrees established and traditionally followed by reputable institutions." (U.S. Office of Education, March 1974). "Degree mill" and "diploma mill" are used synonymously. The Problem The laudable increased interest in health and nutrition on the part of the public is being exploited by unqualified "nutritionists" advertising themselves as "consultants" or "counselors." In reality, such people are salespersons with spurious credentials obtained through diploma mills or certification mills.

Fat is essential to maintain the integrity of the cells in the body. Fats help the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E and K, and provide a concentrated source of energy that is stored in cells for future use. Many nutrition professionals recommend that no more than 35% of daily calories come from fat, most of which should be from the healthier, unsaturated fats. In July 2003, the FDA approved a qualified health claim that can appear on packages: "Scientific evidence suggests but does not prove that eating 1.5 oz. per day of most nuts, such as pistachios, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease." It is important to understand the types of fat in the diet.
