Healthy Eating Plate






I'm swooning over Harvard School of Public Health's direct challenge to USDA's MyPlate. I love...


  • that it is annotated -- I mean, shouldn't that be obvious, USDA?


  • that it stresses WHOLE grains and HEALTHY proteins.


  • that the glass is filled with water and not dairy
  • That it notes foods to avoid and limit
  • That it includes staying active!
Great job HSPH! I think I'll be adopting this for my health education spiels instead.
