For a healthful lifestyle: promoting cooperation among nutrition professionals and physical activity professionals. American College of Sports Medicine, the American Dietetic Association, International Food Information Council.
This survey underscores how receptive nutrition and physical activity professionals are to the message of linking nutrition and physical activity for health. Perceived obstacles to helping consumers achieve this link can be better overcome through the combined and collaborative efforts of persons involved in these professions. The good news is the information does not have to be created; professionals simply need to be made aware of existing resources. Partnerships among interested organizations such as ADA, ACSM, and IFIC can help further this effort and help all groups achieve the common goal of helping consumers adopt more healthful lifestyles. Similar partnerships among professionals in each discipline can occur at state and local levels as well.
