PRESS RELEASESNew Release - James Beard AwardFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEMay 14, 2004 SENIOR EDITOR WINS COVETED JAMES BEARD FOUNDATION JOURNALISM AWARD For her article describing how misguided government nutrition policies may have fed into the current obesity epidemic and contributed to millions of premature deaths, Allison J. Cleary has won the prestigious James Beard Foundation Award for food journalism. A senior editor at EATINGWELL, The Magazine of Food & Health, Cleary wrote "Razing the Pyramid" based on interviews with Dr. Walter Willett, the groundbreaking nutrition researcher and epidemiologist at the Harvard School of Public Health. In the article, Willett contends that low-fat, high-starch diets, pushed by the USDA Food Pyramid, and policies encouraging the consumption of margarine and trans-fats are responsible for some of the serious nutritional ills of American society. Based on findings from the long-term Nurses' and Health Professionals' Studies, tracking the diets and health of more than 250,000 individuals, Willett is proposing a restructured food pyramid that puts fats, carbohydrates and glycemic index issues into new perspective. Established in 1990, The James Beard Foundation Awards are the premier honors for fine food and beverage professionals in North America, with judging done by more than 500 media and industry experts.
