Addition to Nutrition Label Group

Hello Everyone, Our group will be using the info Michael suggested about portion size to better explain serving sizes and calories from MyPyramid. We will be using tips from a powerpoint presentation we found off of this website to incorporate into our publisher. Info from here can also be of use to the recipe group and physical activity group. They tell how portion size has changed over the years and how the calories have increased for certain food [ex. for physical activity group: it says how long you would have to rake leaves to burn off 210 calories using the example of a bagle and more].........[ex. for recipe group: it says how much of each major food group we need to consume on a 2000 calorie diet and gives you the equivalents.........you can use this info for your intro along w/ the food plate concept]. Please take time to look at this website and download the powerpoint and ACTUALLY USE the info. to improve OUR healthy living guide!!!
