Pinggang Pinoy

The Pinggang Pinoy shows the amount of

food that we will going to eat to get the
exact nutrition. It is a food guide using a
food plate model to shows the recommended
proportion by food groups in every meal,
intended specifically for healthy Filipinos.

The Food Plate is composed of three groups of food, the Go, Grow and
Glow food

Go Foods are the type of food that provide fuel and help us ‘go’
and be active. Examples of ‘Go’ foods include bread, rice, pasta,
cereals and potato. These foods give our muscles fuel to run, swim,
jump, cycle and our brain fuel to concentrate. If we don’t eat enough
‘Go’ foods then we can feel tired and won’t have enough fuel to get
through the day. It’s important to include ‘Go’ foods at all meals and
especially breakfast so that our body and brain can get ready for the
busy school day ahead.

Grow Foods help our body grow bigger and stronger. ‘Grow’
foods help build our body’s bones, teeth and muscles. Examples of
‘Grow’ foods include chicken, meat, fish, eggs and milk, cheese and
yoghurt. All of these foods help to keep us feeling full so that we don’t
get hungry straight away. ‘Grow’ foods also help keep our brain bright
and focused. If we don’t eat enough ‘Grow’ foods our bodies won’t
have the right building blocks to make us taller and stronger.

Glow Foods are full of vitamins and minerals to keep our skin,
hair and eyes bright and glowing. ‘Glow’ foods can keep our immune
system strong so that we can fight bugs and viruses. Examples of
‘Glow’ foods include all fruits and vegetables. Brightly coloured fruits
and vegetables are full of vitamins and minerals and we need to eat
different types every day. What did you eat yesterday – were there lots
 of different coloured fruit and vegetables? Try and eat fruit and
vegetables from every colour of the rainbow are to make sure you’re
getting enough ‘Glow’ foods.
