Textbook Question
Chapter 11.8, Problem 11.23YT
Which foods should you eat less of, and which ones more? One day the experts say one thing; the next day they seem to say the opposite. With so much information available, you may be confused or feel overwhelmed.
- a. Using the Internet, search for the dietary advice illustrated by “the Basic Four” (1958), “the Food Pyramid” (1991), “MyPyramid” (2005), and “MyPlate” (2011). What do all of these have in common? What are key differences among these suggestions?
- b. Cite research studies that support the above dietary suggestions. What are the merits and weaknesses of MyPlate versus those of MyPyramid? Are there additional components that should be included in these plans?
