Tips On…Nutrition & Health

A balanced diet is the first step toward maintaining good health. Following the food pyramid is a reliable way to ensure healthy eating. Food groups such as milk, meat, fruits, vegetables and grains, help supply more than 40 nutrients your body needs. When you “strive for five” by eating five or more fruits or vegetables per day, you typically increase nutrition and decrease consumption of less nutritious foods. Supplement your healthy diet with exercise and proper rest.
