Answer to Question 2

As a visual reminder for healthy eating, MyPlate suggests:
 Caloric balance: Enjoy your food but eat less; avoid oversized portions.
 Foods to Increase: Make half your plate fruits and vegetables; make at least half your grains whole grains; switch to nonfat or low-fat (1) milk.
 Food to Reduce: Compare sodium in foods like soup, bread, and frozen meals and choose those with lower numbers; drink water instead of sugary drinks.
