Remember the old food pyramid from school? Big stacks of bread and pasta at the bottom, and fats at the tiny top? Nutrition advice has come a long way since then—and MyPlate is here to make healthy eating simpler, more balanced, and a whole lot easier to follow.

In this episode, I break down:

• Why the old food pyramid was confusing (and sometimes misleading)
• How MyPlate makes balanced eating more practical and visual
• The ideal plate breakdown
• A super simple trick—using your own hand as a built-in portion guide
• How to use MyPlate in real life to build meals without overthinking, calorie counting, or measuring cups

Whether you’re just starting your health journey or looking to simplify the way you eat, this episode will help you ditch the complicated charts and start creating balanced, satisfying meals—right from the palm of your hand.
