Do you think food pyramids are flawed? Do
you use them in your life? Do you think
they're useful?

the Food Pyramid Posted: 07-21-04 14:46pm
The pyramid is wrong!!Way too many
carbs-!11 servings a day??Too much bread
and carbs,not enough healthy
fats(nuts,olive oil, omega oils)don't ask
most doctors about nutrition,they have no
clue.They say follow the pyramid.I have
also seen diets that try to eliminate all
fat from the diet,you can't do this!!That
only causes your body to hold onto fats
and not use them,thus making you gain
more!Our bodies need good
fats-nuts,avacado fish oils. A great book
is "ultra prevention"by drs mark
liponisand mark hyman.They are the medical
directors of canyon ranch wellness
center.Some good advice.

Heys... How sure are you on the mistakes
in the food pyramid?
Have you personally tried to make use of
one?
Sorry... Need to do some desperate
research... So need to know more of your
views...
Thank you...
