Don't label foods good or
bad. A healthy eating style
is like a puzzle with many
parts. Each part or food
may be different. Some
foods may have more fat,
sugar or salt, while others
may have more vitamins or
fiber. There is a place for
all these foods.
What makes a diet good or
bad is how foods fit
together. Balancing your
choices are important.
