The MyPlate Plan shows your food group targets – what and how much to eat within your calorie allowance. Your food plan is personalized, based on your age, sex, height, weight, and physical activity level. The MyPlate Plan is also available in Spanish.
Toolkits
A variety of resource toolkits are available for teachers, nutrition and health communicators, and other professionals.
The MyPlate website includes a number of print materials, available as downloadable PDFs. These materials are in the public domain and therefore no permission is needed to print, reproduce, or use them.
Whether it's winter, spring, summer, or fall, look to MyPlate for tips, resources, activity sheets, and sometimes, just plain fun!
