Summary
The USDA food pyramid has changed and so has this program about four young adults who adjust their eating patterns to fit the pyramid. The video focuses on a key idea of the food pyramid that eating patterns have to fit individual needs. There is no one daily diet that is best for everyone. Viewers meet Alex, Sam, Kara and Heather and watch as each gets a nutritional makeover. With different eating habits and activity levels each has his or her own nutritional problem. The video explains why each style could cause problems and how to adjust eating patterns to match the USDA dietary guidelines.
