Week 1 YMCA RD Handout Plate Method 9-6-24.pdf.jpg

Plate Method is a helpful tool for anyone who wants to eat better and learn about variety and portion sizes, including people with prediabetes. Each section of the plate (based on a nine-inch plate) is for the following three food groups: vegetables, grains, and protein. Off to the side is dairy and fruit. These five food groups are the foundation for healthy eating.

The Plate Method Diet is an approach to eating that uses a dinner plate as a guide for planning a healthy meal.
