Food Pyramid

The food pyramid was created to help us make healthy food choices. Check out this website for tons of useful info on topics such as: Steps to a Healthier Weight, Dietary Guidelines, Pregnancy and Breastfeeeding and much more. You can even create your own individualized Pyramid plan by entering your age, sex, height, weight and physical activity information. A great resource that helps you plan your food intake based on your activity levels.

There is also information for kids (ages 6-11) along with activities, worksheets and games to help them learn to make healthy choices now during their formative years. Check out this valuable resource.
