The healthy diet pyramid, also called the healthy eating pyramid is a nutrition guide developed by the Harvard School of Public Health, suggesting quantities of each food category that a human should eat each day. The healthy eating pyramid is intended to provide a superior eating guide than the widespread food guide pyramid created by the USDA.
The first food guide pyramid was made by Anna-Britt Agnsäter for Sweden's National Board of Health and Welfare in 1972. The USDA pyramid was based off of the original pyramid and was introduced in 1992.
The Food Guide Pyramid helps by providing practical food guidelines to people so that they will apply the nutrient standards to plan a healthy balanced diet.
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.

The actual food pyramid was last updated in 2005. However, in 2011 it was completely replaced by the "My Plate" nutrition guide put forth by the USDA.
