Food Groups
Eating fresh, whole foods
is best for your health. The old adage that "you are
what you eat" may not be the whole story, but it certainly
is a significant part of it.
Processed and fast food simply does not add to your health
prospects, and may harm you in the long run. This section
gives examples of five food groups, namely vegetables, fruits,
seafood, meat and poultry, and others.
The Basic Food Group
