From a general population health perspective, the pyramid was a pretty good system. It was basically an attempt to simplify the Mediterranean pattern. I like the Power Plate better though.

Like so much. I couldn't keep up.

That's more or less how it should be, but with whole grains instead of the ultra-processed stuff. Your diet should be something like:

• 50-60% carbs (ideally complex carbs), with lots of fiber
• 20-30% protein
• 20-25% fat

Each group has sub-categories, but generally speaking, you should bulk up on grains (rice, whole wheat, corn, etc), get lots of great fruits and veggies, enough protein, and fill in the rest as you like.
