Food Guide Pyramid
The six spaces on the Food Guide Pyramid represent different food groups, each contributing essential nutrients to a balanced diet. These groups include grains, vegetables, fruits, dairy, protein, and fats/oils. The pyramid's structure emphasizes the proportion of each group that should be consumed, with larger sections for foods like grains and vegetables, promoting a diet rich in these nutrients while limiting fats and sweets. This design aims to guide individuals toward making healthier dietary choices.
