MyPyramid, the New Food Pyramid

Use this three-piece set to get a handle on the USDA’s new nutrition model! Covers all of the government’s 2005 food and fitness recommendations.

 

The New Food Pyramid

When it comes to nutrition today, one size doesn’t fit all. That’s why the USDA created MyPyramid, a food guidance system that emphasizes a more individualized approach to improving diet and overall physical fitness. After watching this video, your students will have a clear understanding of the food pyramid’s history, the six themes incorporated into the MyPyramid system, the main components of MyPyramid, and how people like themselves can make this updated food pyramid a part of their life. Solid information delivered by nutrition experts from Princeton University and elsewhere and supported by onscreen diagrams, lists, and fun facts make The New Food Pyramid an indispensable part of any health-related video collection. A viewable/printable instructor’s guide is available online. Correlates to National Health Education Standards for Achieving Health Literacy. A Meridian Production. Recommended for grades 7-12. (22 minutes)

 

MyPyramid Poster

Use this laminated MyPyramid poster to show learners the new way to look at healthy eating and activity. The front explains what the MyPyramid symbol means and sets general guidelines for how much to eat from each food group. And because MyPyramid is part of a system that emphasizes an individualized approach to improving diet and lifestyle, there’s also a letter-size reproducible chart on the back that allows students to customize those guidelines based on their gender, age, and activity level. One 18" x 24" poster.

 

MyPyramid Educator’s PowerPoint®

New guidelines, new pyramid! This PowerPoint® presentation will bring educators up to speed on MyPyramid without delay. Whether you show it onscreen or print it out on overheads, it’ll help viewers understand the system faster than you can say “Steps to a healthier you!” Concepts, symbolism, and dietary recommendations are all covered. Can be used with both Windows and Macintosh.
