MyPyramid is the educational tool developed and released by the USDA to help customers make healthier food choices and physical activity that leads to a healthy lifestyle and diet are in line with the Manual for the United States.
Food groups are represented by six different colors:
* Orange – grains
* Green – vegetables
* Red – fruits
* Yellow – oils
* Blue – milk products
* Purple – meats and beans
The foods in each group must be eaten each day. If you look at the pyramids, the wider range of foods (cereals and vegetables that is) showing that the food is more than the group that should be eaten. Portion is important, therefore, not excessive - even healthy foods have calories remember. According to MyPyramid, the average person should eat three ounces of grain products, two cups of fruit, 2 1 / 2 cups of vegetables every day. The oil should be used sparingly.
