Food House of Hungary | HealthyLife

The “house” has five simple food groups, the same as the traditional food pyramid. Much of the information advising on regular meal sizes and supplementary diet tips, though, are in the accompanying information and not on the actual food “pyramid.” The roof is made of animal source products (i.e. meats and dairy products). Foods from these groups should be part of the daily diet. Products high in sugar and fat should be eaten sparingly, and this is the reason why they are placed outside of the house.

1. Cereals : Eat cereals several times a day. Vegetables, fruits :Eat both fruits and vegetables at least three times a day.
