USDA Food Guide is corrupt and influenced by the food industry. But Mike Adams has created an "Honest Food Guide". It's is an unbiased food guide that will show you what to eat. It's a free PDF download. I thought this might be interesting for the community. |

I think that's the one I was reading when I realised that the USDA food pyramid promoted agriculture as much as health. Another great resource. Thanks for finding it for me. Amanda
