When women talk (as many often do) about adopting a healthier diet, what do they have in mind? The latest release from a large survey conducted last summer for Better Homes and Gardens gives some detail. Sixty-three percent of the women said they’d followed a “health-related” diet in the past year, aside from dieting aimed specifically at weight loss. Thirty-six percent of these regimens were low-sugar and 35 percent were low-fat. Fewer were low-carbohydrate and high-fiber (25 percent), low-cholesterol and low-sodium (22 percent) or “heart-healthy” (21 percent).

The women were also asked what they look for when reading the nutritional data on food packaging.
