Nutrition Basics With MyPlate

The idea
Federal dietary guidelines describe healthy eating through an image called MyPlate, which divides a plate by food group.
In practice
Nutrient-dense foods, such as fruits and vegetables, offer a high proportion of nutrition for their calories.
Where people slip
Reinforce the provider's nutrition advice; special diets come from the provider or a dietitian.
