MyPlate

MyPlate is a nutrition guide created by the U.S. Department of Agriculture that illustrates a balanced diet for healthy eating. It visually represents the five food groups: fruits, vegetables, grains, protein, and dairy, depicted on a plate divided into sections. The concept encourages individuals to fill half their plate with fruits and vegetables, and to include whole grains, lean proteins, and low-fat dairy. MyPlate promotes portion control and variety, making it easier for people to make healthier food choices and develop better eating habits for overall wellness.
