Utilizing The Food Pyramid For A Healthy Diet Plan
By Ramone Stevenson
Utilizing The Food Pyramid For A Healthy Diet Plan By Ramone Stevenson In our never-ending quest to be slim and fit, different people have different ideas about what type of body looks best. And due to this diversity in opinion, some of us are going to the extremes of the dieting spectrum. Losing weight is one thing, starving ourselves is completely something else. And the worst part is it’s very unhealthy. Our bodies need certain nutrients – including fat – to help keep us alert, focused and energized. And depriving ourselves of the essentials that we need to achieve the highest level of functionality is detrimental in more ones than one. We might be losing weight at a rapid rate by practicing our chosen eating habits (or lack of), but what’s the point if we’re sick as a result of it?

And there’s no skimping allowed with it either – serving sizes are mandated, big or small - which will not only guarantee that you’re getting your daily requirements, but it will also ensure that you’re eating, period. Following are the six required elements and their applicable serving sizes as reflected on the current, recently-revised pyramid that now includes three protein subgroups.
1. Protein Sub-group: Fats, Oils and Sweets (in moderation) 2.

Health is a unity and harmony within the mind, body and spirit which is unique to each person, and is as defined by that person. The level of wellness or health is, in part, determined by the ability to deal with and defend against stress. Health is on a continuum with movements between a state of optimum well-being and illness which is defined as degrees of disharmony. It is determined by physiological, psychological, socio-cultural, spiritual, and developmental stage variables.
