Planning a Nutritious Diet
In 2005 the Department of Health and Human Services and Department of Agriculture released the latest edition of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
Use the guidelines to evaluate the nutritional quality of your diet. If your diet needs improving, develop an eating plan that is based on the guidelines.
