A healthful eating plan means choosing the right foods to eat and preparing foods in a healthy way.

The food guide pyramid is a guideline to help you eat a healthy diet. The food guide pyramid can help you eat a variety offood_pyramid.jpg foods while encouraging the right amount of calories and fat. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the US Department of Health and Human Services have prepared the food pyramid to guide you in selecting foods.
