What you eat plays a major role in preventing chronic disease. HHS recommends a healthy eating pattern that includes:
π A variety of proteins
π₯£ Dairy (without added sugars)
π₯ Vegetables
π Fruits and healthy fats
π₯ Plenty of fruits and vegetables
πΎ Whole grains over refined grains
π§ Dairy options rich in nutrients
π High-quality, nutrient-dense proteins (beans, nuts, fish, poultry)
π§ Limited added sugars, sodium, and saturated fats
You don't have to overhaul your entire diet overnight. Start with one swap: whole grain bread instead of white, water instead of soda, an extra serving of veggies at dinner. Small changes, made consistently, add up to big results.
