New E-Gov Site Offers Guidelines for Healthier Eating

Press release: “Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns today unveiled MyPyramid, a new symbol and interactive food guidance system. ‘Steps to a Healthier You,’ MyPyramid’s central message, supports President Bush’s HealthierUS initiative which is designed to help Americans live longer, better and healthier lives. MyPyramid, which replaces the Food Guide Pyramid introduced in 1992, is part of an overall food guidance system that emphasizes the need for a more individualized approach to improving diet and lifestyle.” The site is optimized for users of PC and Mac, in both English and Spanish. Note that this is the first major revision of the food pyramid since 1992, and see this AP article for more details.
