What is the healthiest way to eat?

It's easy when you use the USDA Food Guide Pyramids! New Food Guide Pyramids were released April 2005, to coordinate with the development of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (Adobe Reader required to view this document). The USDA and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released the new dietary guidelines in January 2005. Click here for more information on Dietary Guidelines.

My Pyramid Plan - Use this tool at MyPyramid.gov to enter your age, sex and amount of daily physical activity to get a customized food guide. It will give you the amount of each food group you should consume daily.

Follow the Pyramids and you'll be on your way to a healthier lifestyle in no time!
