It¡¯s been awhile since the new food pyramid was published in

Newsweek but it¡¯s totally different than the old one. The old one

put processed and high glycemic carbs like pasta and white bread and

cereal on the bottom but the new one has revised it to be on top.

As you know the bottom is what you eat the most of and the top is

what you¡¯re supposed to eat the least of. Anyways, the new pyramid

advised 2-3 servings of fruit, 3-5 servings of whole wheat, good

carbs like brown rice, and lots of veggies... Also it separates red

meat with chicken and fish and eggs. The worst things to eat are

butter, processed carbs, simple sugars, and red meat. You gotta

check it out. This link shows the new food pyramid compared with

the old http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/pyramids.html.

Some good sites to find out about good carbs vs bad carbs and how to

revise your diet are http://info.savvyfaire.com and

www.glycemicindex.com.
