						Improving Diet and Physical Activity Assessment 
					 
				
				
				
				Encourages innovative research to enhance the quality of measurements of dietary intake
				and physical activity. 
				 
				Diet and physical activity are lifestyle and behavioral factors that 
				play a role in the etiology and prevention of many chronic diseases, such as cancer, coronary heart disease, 
				and overweight/obesity as well as in maintaining weight loss. 
				 
				  
						
						
						Accurate longitudinal data on physical activity and dietary 
				intake patterns would be especially helpful in understanding how these factors may impact on health and functional status over the human lifespan.
				Therefore, diet and physical activity are assessed for both surveillance and epidemiological/clinical research purposes.
