Position on Nutrition
All foods can fit into a healthy diet. It’s all about balance. My focus in feeding my family has three main nutritional goals: increase fruits & vegetables, increase the amount of whole grains, and ensure three daily servings of dairy foods (or a calcium-rich substitute).
Many chronic health problems including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and osteoporosis can be prevented with a diet resembling these goals. These dietary principles track the 2015-2020 U.S. Dietary Guidelines and the recommendations of MyPlate from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
