    Eating Right Food Groups:


    Dairy
    What did you eat for breakfast today? Dinner
    yesterday? Do you remember how much fruit youve
    eaten this week? We all know that it is important to eat
    healthy, but often times its easier said than done. It
    seems like everyday theres new information about
    serving sizes, nutrients, and calories. Over the next few
    weeks Im going be discussing the food groups and the
    current recommendations for childrens dietary needs.
    Currently, the USDA (United States Department of
    Agriculture) recognizes five main food groups: fruits,
    vegetables, grains, protein, and dairy. All oils essential
    to our health can be found the above food groups, so
    there oils and fats are no longer recognized as their own
    food group. You might be familiar with the traditional
    food pyramid, however the USDA now recommends a
    new graphic (seen above) to better visualize
    recommended serving sizes.
    The first of the food groups is the dairy group.
    This group includes milk, cheese, yogurt,
    lactose-free milk, milk-based desserts,
    and calcium-fortified soymilks. The
    USDA recommends that children
    have 2-3 cups from this group
    each day.
