More Food Pyramid Stuff

Here is a great post on Kelly the Kitchen Kop's site! Take a look around her site while you are there. She has great info.

The Food Pyramid

Recently I have been doing some research on the "Food Pyramid" and what a healthy diet truly consists of. I know so many people who are going on "diets" that require them to completely eliminate some type of food group and yet they are still not eating nutritionally denses foods. Unfortunately this will only allow their weight loss/gain to be on a merry-go-round for years to come. I wanted to find out what our diets should really consist of and why. I will hopfully have some more posts in the near future with more info and statistics, but I wanted to post these as food for thought!
