The Food Pyramid

A Plan For Eating

Healthy
foods are the foundation of healthy living.

Build the foundation of your daily eating plan with
6 to 11 servings from the Bread, Cereal, Rice & Pasta Group.

Choose an item from the Vegetable group
at least 3 to 5 times each day.

It's a treat to enjoy 2 to 4 servings from the
Fruit Group as part of your daily diet.

Limit your selection of Milk, Yogurt & Cheese
to just 2 to 3 items per day.

Get protein from the Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dry Beans, Eggs & Nuts
through 2 to 3 servings every day.

Top off your daily eating plan with
Fats, Oils & Sweets, but only in small quantities.
