Detailed explanation-1: -According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, you should consume the highest proportion of your foods from the grain group. However, you should consume almost as many portions from the vegetable group; fill your plate a little over one-fourth full with grains and add almost the same amount of vegetables.
Detailed explanation-2: -Eating your (at least) five portions of fruit and vegetables a day is a good start, but there’s more you can do to ensure you’re having a balanced diet. A balanced diet is made up of foods from the five food groups: starchy carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables, protein, dairy and healthy fats.
Detailed explanation-3: -Grains should be taken as the major dietary source. Eat more fruit and vegetables. Have a moderate amount of meat, fish, egg, milk and their alternatives.
