The Nutrient Rich Foods Coalition

The Nutrient Rich Foods Coalition is a partnership that brings together leading scientific researchers, communications experts and agricultural commodities. Our members are composed of 12 food commodity associations that represent the five basic MyPyramid food groups.

We are dedicated to advancing scientific and market research to develop tools that make it easier for people to understand and incorporate nutrient-dense foods into their healthy lifestyle. Additionally, we support research to develop science-based and consumer-tested materials for use by health professionals.

The Coalition supports the 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and MyPyramid and encourages widespread research and educational efforts that help consumers make their calories count more by enjoying nutrient-rich foods first.
