Having a clear understanding of healthy eating and nutritional concepts is important, especially at a young age. Appropriate dietary habits learned in childhood often carry into adulthood. Therefore, teaching children at a young age how to eat healthy and why they should be doing so, will help them stay healthy throughout their lives.

What is this eating plate you ask? The Healthy Plate, created by nutrition experts at Harvard School of Public Health and editors at Harvard Health Publications, provides detailed guidance, in a simple format, to help people make the best eating choices.

This healthy eating guide is literally a plate divided into 4 sections. These sections are distinguished by 4 different colors: yellow, green, orange and blue. The colors represent grains, vegetables, fruits and protein, respectively. The fruits and vegetables section should cover half of your plate, with the vegetable section larger than the fruit section. As far as the grains and protein, both groups should be equal. And lastly, your healthy plate should be accompanied by the healthiest beverage: water.
