Health Minute: Healthy Eating

Health Minute logo

WPSU’s Health Minute is a collaboration with Penn State’s College of Nursing. 

 

You can enhance your health with something you do every day -- eating!?? 

 

The United States Department of Agriculture has established Dietary Guidelines for Americans.??You can see if you are making every bite count by taking a quiz on myplate.gov. 

 

Then make a conscious decision to follow the guidelines to adopt a healthy dietary pattern: Select foods that you both enjoy and are healthy. Eat nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Limit foods high in sugar, fat and salt.  

 

Eating healthy might require some changes to build new habits and find foods that are both nutritious and delicious. Simple changes in your diet will greatly enhance your life.?For more information, visit DietaryGuidelines.gov.???
