Food groups are the building blocks of a balanced diet, each offering unique nutritional
benefits. Grains, like rice and wheat, provide essential carbohydrates for energy. Fruits and
vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber, supporting overall health. Lean proteins,
such as chicken and beans, aid muscle development and repair. Dairy products like milk and
yogurt offer calcium for strong bones and teeth. Finally, healthy fats from sources like
avocados and nuts are crucial for cell function and absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
Combining foods from these groups in the right proportions ensures a well-rounded and
nutritious diet, promoting vitality and well-being.
