Nutrition is a recognized determinant in 3 (ie, diseases of the heart, malignant neoplasms, cerebrovascular diseases) of the top 4 leading causes of death in the United States. However, many health care providers are not adequately trained to address lifestyle recommendations that include nutrition and physical activity behaviors in a manner that could mitigate disease development or progression. This contributes to a compelling need to markedly improve nutrition education for health care professionals and to establish curricular standards and requisite nutrition and physical activity competencies in the education, training, and continuing education for health care professionals. This article reports the present status of nutrition and physical activity education for health care professionals, evaluates the current pedagogic models, and underscores the urgent need to realign and synergize these models to reflect evidence-based and outcomes-focused education.
营养是美国前 4 大死亡原因中的 3 种（即心脏病、恶性肿瘤、脑血管病）的公认决定因素。然而，许多卫生保健提供者在以能够减轻疾病发展或进展的方式提出包括营养和身体活动行为的生活方式建议方面的培训不足。这就迫切需要显著改善卫生保健专业人员的营养教育，并在卫生保健专业人员的教育、培训和继续教育中建立课程标准和必要的营养与身体活动能力。本文报告了卫生保健专业人员营养和身体活动教育的现状，评估了当前的教学模式，并强调迫切需要调整和协同这些模式，以反映基于证据和注重结果的教育。
