We all remember the famous Food Guide Pyramid developed in the 1990s that supposedly captures what a healthy diet looks like. The base of the model is made up of grains, followed by vegetables, fruits, dairy, proteins, and topped by a small section for fats and sweets.
It was a helpful tool that guided Americans in cultivating a healthy lifestyle for themselves and their families.
Except it wasn’t, because the model is fundamentally flawed.
