Grain Group  

Grains: Eat at least three ounces of whole grains every day, in place of refined grains.

Fruit Group   Fruits: Eat a variety of whole fruit (fresh, frozen, canned, or dried) to ensure adequate fiber intake.
 
Oils Group   Oils: Make most of your fat sources from vegetable oil, nuts and fish. The daily allowance of oil for most adults is about 6 teaspoons per day. This recommendation is for the adult that does less than 30 minutes of exercise per day. If you exercise more than that, then your oil recommendation could be higher. Frito-Lay chip products provide 1-2 teaspoons of healthy oil per 1 oz serving, and 1 teaspoon of oil equals 4-5 grams of fat.
Vegetable Group   Vegetables: Eat more dark green and orange veggies and more dry beans and peas.
Milk Group   Milk: Choose fat-free or low-fat milk.
Meat & Bean Group   Meat and Beans: Choose low-fat or lean meats. Choose more fish, beans, peas, nuts and seeds.

Physical activity: Be physically active for at least 30 minutes a day for health benefits.
