While most Americans support legalizing marijuana, there are concerns about public use of the drug, if it were to become legal. Overall, 62% say that if marijuana were legal it would bother them if people used it in public; just 33% say this would not bother them.
Dietary Guidelines for Americans[edit] The Center serves as the administrative agency within the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for the issuance of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which are the cornerstone of Federal nutrition policy and nutrition education activities.
The US standards are based primarily on the 1968 Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs), whereas the Canadian standards are based on the 1983 Recommended Nutrient Intakes. As the committee noted, it is appropriate to use the new Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) as the basis for these reference values.
