The Harvard Healthy Eating Pyramid
The top of the Healthy Eating Pyramid suggests that we eat red meat, sweets, starches, white breads and pastas all only sparingly. It also allows much larger portions of healthy vegetable oils like flax oil, olive oil, and walnut oil, plus the omega 3 fatty acids found in fish oil.The Michigan Healing Foods Pyramid
The top of the Healing Pyramid allows us to indulge in healthy treats once per week. It includes chocolates, which have healing anti-oxidants, red wine which has resveratrol, and also suggests tea as a healthy beverage. I like this part of the pyramid.It is important to know that white bread and pastas behave very much like sugar when we consume them. Almost all of our grain products should be whole grain products.
