The New Four Food Groups

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine released this chart back in 1991 as a way to promote healthy eating.  It just so happens that it does not contain any animal products.

From PCRM:

This no-cholesterol, low-fat plan supplies all of an average adult’s daily nutritional requirements, including substantial amounts of fiber. The major killers of Americans—heart disease, cancer, and stroke—have a dramatically lower incidence among people consuming primarily plant-based diets. Weight problems—a contributor to a host of health problems—can also be brought under control by following the New Four Food Group recommendations. Try the New Four Food Groups and discover a healthier way to live!
