Our definition of a healthy diet follows the USDA's new guidelines - for the most part. Recipes do not have to strictly adhere to this - but basically we do not want any fad diets.
Our guideline is to consume a variety of nutrient-dense foods and beverages within and among the basic food groups while choosing foods that limit the intake of saturated and trans fats, cholesterol, added sugars, salt, and alcohol.
Please use your own discretion when posting recipes. They do not have to meet all of the guidelines above. If you feel it is a healthy recipe or food, then please post it.
Vegetarians are more than welcome here!
Please Do NOT post
- your detailed measurements with a plea to help you lose weight. We are not here to be your personal trainer.
- advertisements. Yes, even the thinly veiled ones where you rant about how much you like a product. We can tell the real praise from the ads. And then we delete the ads.
Please do feel free to ask specific questions.
