According to a new survey of eating habits commissioned by the American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR), 4 in 5 weight-conscious Americans are taking an old-fashioned, “common-sense” approach to managing their weight. They turn to salads, fruits, and vegetables and decrease the amount of fat in their diet when trying to shed a few pounds. The fact that a clear majority of Americans are adopting this approach, amid the low-carb marketing craze, is encouraging news to health experts concerned about the state of nutrition in the U.S.
