How to use the food pyramid
The Food Pyramid, developed by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), is an excellent tool to help you make healthy food choices. The food pyramid can help you choose from a variety of foods so you get the nutrients you need, and the suggested serving sizes can help you control the amount of calories, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, sugar or sodium in your diet.
But you need to understand how to use the pyramid.
LifeClinic has a nice summary of the tool, and explanation about how to best use the Food Pyramid. Check out LifeClinic here.
