Parents are searching for information about the food pyramid, and also about the popular “Go Glow Grow Foods”, probably because of the homework requirements of their children who are in Grade 2.
Anyway, here’s a quick listing:
Go Foods (provide energy) – Carbohydrates such as sweet potatoes, rice, pasta, bread, breakfast cereal
Grow Foods (build the body’s bones, teeth and muscles) – Protein-rich foods such as chicken, dairy products, eggs, fish, meat, milk, cheese, yogurt, Hunt’s Pork and Beans
Glow Foods (strengthen the immune system) – Veggies (especially the dark green leafy vegetables), and fruits (apples, bananas, mangoes, oranges, suha, watermelon). Vitamin D helps give your skin that beautiful and healthy glow! 🙂
For more information, please see:
- Go, grow, glow foods (Philippine Star) – “Young kids can better develop and strengthen their body resistance if given the proper nutrition through the Go, Grow, and Glow basic food groups, says Jasmin Estacio, consumer marketing manager for Bear Brand. These groupings that help identify and categorize the nutritional benefits of healthy food varieties are promoted by the product during its nationwide school-based Laki sa Gatas nutrition education advocacy.”
