The Food Pyramid
Notice the Food
Pyramid has had a facelift! What do you notice different
about it?
Instead of starting with the bottom and building with the food
groups on top of each other, all of the food groups start
at the bottom and go up, emphasizing the narrowing top for the
added sugars and fats. Notice the staircase added to
the food pyramid---a reminder to be more physically active.
The new
pyramid is NOT a "one size fits all" anymore! The new My
Pyramid is personalized so that one can type in their own
information and the pyramid will make healthy choices that
fit one's own needs. HOW COOL IS THAT?? To find
out, go to
www.MyPyramid.gov.
Have fun while
you're there---it's a great site!
