A balanced plate makes healthy eating simple without counting every calorie.

Fill half your plate with vegetables and fruit, a quarter with lean protein and a quarter with whole grains, and choose water over sugary drinks.

Pin Tip

Shop the edges of the grocery store first, where fresh foods are usually found.

Small Swaps Add Up

Choose whole grain bread, snack on nuts or fruit, and cook at home more often to control salt, sugar and portions.
