[3] Many Americans think they make healthy food choices, but they may be viewing their diet too optimistically. That’s the main finding of a new study by researchers at the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Stoneville, Mississippi.
The study aimed to identify disconnects between how healthily Americans think they eat and how they actually do. For the study, the researchers asked participants to rate their diet as excellent, very good, good, fair or poor. Folks also completed 24-hour food questionnaires. Then, the researchers compared answers to see how well responses to the two exercises matched up.
Of more than 9,700 people, roughly 85 percent were off base when asked to rate the quality of their diet, and almost all overestimated how healthy it was. [4] Those who rated their diet as poor tended to be far more accurate. Their rating match that of the researchers more than nine times out of ten.

许多美国人认为自己能做出健康的食物选择,但他们可能对自己的饮食看法过于乐观了。这是美国农业部位于密西西比州斯通维尔的研究人员一项新研究的主要发现。
该研究旨在找出美国人对自身饮食健康程度的看法与实际状况之间的差异。研究中,研究人员要求参与者将自己的饮食评级为优、良、好、一般或差。参与者还完成了24小时饮食问卷。随后,研究人员比较了答案,以评估两种方式得出的结果在多大程度上吻合。
在9700多名参与者中,约85%的人在评价自己的饮食质量时判断有误,并且几乎所有人都高估了自己饮食的健康程度。那些将自己的饮食评为"差"的人,其判断往往准确得多。超过九成的情况下,他们的评级与研究人员的评估相符。
