[The Norwegian diet is steadily improving].
The main goal of the Norwegian food and nutrition policy for the period 1975-1990 was to reduce the fat content in the diet to 35% of the energy supply. Our latest data on food supply and consumption show that this target has been reached, and that dietary fat now contributes to 34% of the energy. The dietary changes have probably contributed to the decrease in cardiovascular disease that has taken place since the early 1970s. It is most likely that public health continue to improve through further changes in diet, and the National Nutrition Council has prepared a strategy aimed at achieving a Norwegian diet with a fat content providing only 30% of the energy supply.
