Abstract
The aim of this document is to propose a definition of healthy diets and related evidence, thus permitting the alignment of terminology for the Food Systems Summit. Diets are combinations of food consumed by individuals of a given time. The specific combination of foods that make up healthy diets, however, is context specific and depends on many cultural, economic, and other factors. In this document, we provide a definition and overview of approaches that have been used to translate this into food-based recommendations. We also provide a brief review to highlight evidence, gaps, and controversies related to defining healthy diets. The evidence of potential solutions to making healthy diets more available, affordable, and their products environmentally sustainable is the subject of much literature.
