Answer to Question 1

Benefits of population-based dietary and physical activity recommendations are multiple. The information is science-based, free, and made widely available to the public on the Internet. Adherence to the information can help people stay healthy and lower their risk of developing disorders such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and obesity.
Limitations of MyPlate include that materials available are almost entirely made available on the Internet, making the information inaccessible to people who do not use computers or have access to the Internet. MyPlate does not provide specific recommendations for infants, individuals on therapeutic diets, or vegans. In addition, menus suggested by MyPlate interactive tools may not correspond to individual food preferences and contain relatively few ethnic foods. As with past food guides, planning and evaluating how mixed dishes (such as stews, soups, salads, and various types of pizza) fit into the food groups can still be perplexing.
