Harvard Food Pyramid

The Harvard Food Pyramid emphasizes balanced, nutritious eating by dividing foods into five main groups: vegetables, fruits, grains, protein sources, and dairy. It encourages a higher proportion of vegetables and fruits, moderate intake of whole grains, and choosing healthy proteins like fish, nuts, and legumes. Less emphasis is placed on red meats and processed foods. The goal is to promote overall health and reduce chronic disease risk by focusing on nutrient-dense foods, mindful portion sizes, and incorporating physical activity into daily routines for sustainable, balanced nutrition.
