The 4th edition of the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR 2004) integrates nutrition and physical activity, providing updated guidelines for energy-yielding nutrients, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, salt, and alcohol intake. The report emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet, with specific recommendations for different age and sex groups. For adults, a minimum of 30 minutes of daily moderate to vigorous physical activity is recommended, while children should engage in at least 60 minutes of daily physical activity. Recommendations for saturated and trans fatty acids, carbohydrates, and dietary fiber are detailed, with limits set for refined sugars. Vitamin intake recommendations have been adjusted, particularly for vitamin A (reduced for women) and vitamin D, C, and folate (increased for various groups). The report also includes reference values for energy intake, physical activity levels, and evaluation of nutrient intake, aiming to support dietary planning, evaluation, and policy-making in the Nordic countries.The 4th edition of the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR 2004) integrates nutrition and physical activity, providing updated guidelines for energy-yielding nutrients, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, salt, and alcohol intake.
