Blog # 6 Food Pyramid

 Of all the food groups, fruit, veggies, grains, dairy, and junks i think the most inportant would be the grains group.Not only because it is the bigest in the food pyramid but because it is estencial for humans to go through their daily lives. The other foods in the pyramid are also inportant and must be consumed also in order for the body to keep its normal growth and energy rate. I think the most important thing for humans besides water is energy. Without energy the human body wouldn't be able to go around doing all the necessities for the day. What a human's body needs is carbohydrates and in grains like bread, pasta, ceral, and rice are stocked full of the carbohydrates humans need. Another thing the human body needs is nutrients and protien that the grains also has. However grains doesnt have that many protiens as in dairy and fruits. So even though i think the most important group in the food pyramid is grains it is better if humans eat everything of the food pyramid except of course the junks group that are full of fats and oils. Still even the human body needs the junks to build other things needed for a human to go on throughout the day. It is always good to have a little of everything in your diet but too much of one thing is never good for your body so even though grains are good for you and even if junks taste good you shouldn't eat too much of it.
