The American and Canadian food groups provide a framework for understanding a balanced diet. In the United States, the food groups are defined by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and are commonly known as "MyPlate." In Canada, the food groups are regulated by Health Canada and are referred to as "Canada's Food Guide."
To find the specific food groups, you can visit the official websites of the USDA and Health Canada. Here's a step-by-step guide to accessing the information:
1. For the American food groups, visit the USDA's website at www.choosemyplate.gov.
2. On the homepage, look for the section called "MyPlate" or "Food Groups."
3. Click on that section to access detailed information about the food groups, including fruits, vegetables, grains, protein, and dairy. You'll find information about recommended serving sizes, examples of foods in each group, and tips for building a healthy plate.
Now, let's move on to Canada's Food Guide:
1. Go to Health Canada's website at www.canada.ca.
2. Search for "Canada's Food Guide" using the search bar on the top right corner of the website.
3. Click on the official link to access the most recent version of Canada's Food Guide.
4. In the guide, you'll find information about the four food groups: fruits and vegetables, whole grains, protein foods, and dairy or alternatives. There will also be suggestions on portion sizes and tips for healthy eating.
By following these steps, you should be able to find comprehensive information about the American and Canadian food groups as recommended by the respective government agencies.
