I found this great website [actually more of an online community] which has amazing advice for women on DIET AND NUTRITION, as well as health, beauty, careers and fashion.
I particularly found their section outlining Canada’s food guide [or the food pyramid] quite informative as it highlights the exact amount from each food group a woman needs to take in each day to meet the recommended guidelines. No ONE food or food group can provide us with all the vitamins, minerals or nutrients our body needs to maintain optimal health, that is why it is extremely important to choose the correct portions of food, from the correct groups.
