Michelle Obama presented MyPlate, a diet where fruit and vegetables account for half of the products consumed every day.
The new U.S. campaign to promote healthy eating, has been launched by Michelle Obama.
Dubbed ‘MyPlate’, this dietary pattern has been developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculturel. It is a symbolic and colourful image of a plate divided into four sections: fruits, vegetables, grains, protein and supplemented by extra dairy products.
The initiative aims to foster public understanding in a clear and simple way how good nutrition can fight obesity. The new logo replaces the image of MyPyramid, the previous symbol of recommended food.
