Food Pyramid | Food Pyramid Pictures

Unlike the old food pyramid, the new food pyramid is that each person is different. People eat and burn calories based on different components of your lifestyle. These components can be anything, such as age, activity level or underlying health conditions.

Adjust accordingly

The old food pyramid on the information provided with the assumption that everyone could eat the same types and amounts of food. This made no sense for the average person. For example, according to the old food pyramid that were allowed to eat 6 servings of bread. Surprisingly, compensation and the serving is the same for a two years as it was for a growing adolescent. A well-informed person knew that the adjustment had to do, but do not know exactly how. As a result, this is why the age pyramid was difficult to understand and follow.

Obviously, we all eat different types and lots of food. The new food pyramid understand. When you go to the website, you can enter information such as your age, height, weight and activity level. It will give you a personalized eating plan that follows the major food groups. You know how to eat every day. The plan is an average of 6 ounces of grains, 2.5 cups vegetables, 1.5 cups of fruit, 3 cups milk, 5 ounces of meat and beans. But remember this, obviously, be different for each person.
