This Just In: The New Healthy Eating Plate

I just got this diagram sent to me - The new Healthy Eating Plate!  It was created by Harvard Health Publications and nutrition experts at the Harvard School of Public Health. Too me, it offers more specific and more accurate recommendations for following a healthy diet than the Canada Food Guide or MyPlate. In addition, the Healthy Eating Plate is based on the most up-to-date nutrition research, and most importantly, it is not influenced by the food industry or agriculture policy.  Bon Appetit!

    I like the looks of this far more than any of the extremely industry-influenced "food guides" that are more readily available. Great to see someone recommend limiting red meat and white breads instead of the guides that are highly influenced by the wheat board and cattle farmers. This is also the first guide that I've seen that discourages the consumption of dairy. That's huge. Great share!
