The Food Pyramid
March 24, 2010 - 5:09 pm
For decades the food pyramid was promoted to give a guideline to healthy eating. The food pyramid listed each category of foods that a person needed to eat daily to keep in good shape and be healthy. The problem is that when one does live by the food pyramid and still gains an unhealthy amount of weight. This left it to be questioned as to what was wrong with the food pyramid. The food pyramid was rewritten and a new pyramid was designed. This pyramid failed as a one size fits all pyramid just like the old pyramid had failed.
