As a vegan on a plant based diet, I like this chart. Instead of meat and dairy I just substitute that with the following:
Lentils, chickpeas, black beans, tofu, tempeh, edamame. Tons of healthy fast with avo and olive oil. (And yes I take supplements)
Worth a listen. Based frameworks.
Always open to hearing good dialogue and ideas
I was reading that a lot of this contradicts what the actual written guidelines are... https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/01/07/well/food-pyramid-rfk-jr.html
I think doing this pyramid, but with more emphasis on fish / lean protein vs red meat, is probably what's best for "most people"...
Yes, I think your doing great by exchanging animal protein with plant protein. I mean: the biggest animals are plant eaters…we don’t need to eat animals or their derivates to be healthy and strong 💚
As raw vegan my pyramid looks a bit different:
First fruits and veggies, then sprouts, seeds and nuts, then a little bit of sprouted oat, cacao, dates 🚀
"The biggest animals are plant eaters are plant eaters" is the definition of sophistry.
Just curious, why are you vegan instead of just vegetarian?
Same. Absolutely nothing wrong with whole grains though.
