Healthy People 2020 Structured Evidence Queries

I just wanted to put this out to those of you who like information and research for your blogs.  This project covers a lot of agencies but because of my job, I tend to make note of the National Library of Medicine and National Institutes of Health.  The Healthy People 2020 Structured Evidence Queries is basically all the evidence done for you with pre-formulated searches you click on.  The citations are defaulted from most recent so you get to see for yourself what is coming out in the area of let's say: Large Topic area of Nutrition and Weight Status---then it breaks down the outcome objectives of Healthy People 2020---when you click on the box in the left margin for PubMed Search---for some of them the PubMed Search opens and then for some it breaks it down further into sub-sub-objectives then click the PubMed Search to see the results.  I clicked on NWS 8--Increase the proportion of adults who are at a healthy weight--which is close to what I research--some of the results tap into types of diets--home-delivered dietary approaches and it's influence for the hypertensive or the fast food and obesity link.  Please take a look at my post here  if you have questions about the abstract or  if you want to know how to get the full-text of an article at your public library please feel free to email me.
