A Plant-Based Pyramid
A whole-food, plant-based diet is a colorful diet.
Focus on first filling your plate with a variety of fruits & vegetables, followed by a protein pairing of grains & legumes, and topped off with nutritionally wealthy superfoods & healthy fats.
Level 1: Vegetables and Fruit
Eat generously from this colorful category.
Level 2: Whole Grains
Pairing grains with legumes provides a complete protein. Try soaking or sprouting for easier digestion.
Level 3: Legumes
Try soaking or sprouting grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds to make them easier to digest.
Level 4: Superfoods
Add herbs, spices, seeds, and bee products to give your meals a boost of flavor & nutrients.
Level 5: Healthy Fats
Level 6: Processed Foods and Sweets
Processed foods and sweets should be an occasional treat.
