Panama elaborated its dietary guidelines in 1997. Panama uses a food guide pyramid that combines 4 food groups to illustrate their FBDGs. The effort to create these guidelines was led primarily by the Ministry of Health, with support from INCAP and WHO.
Food Based Dietary Guidelines
The guidelines are conceived as educational messages to improve the eating habits of the population in general, promote health, and prevent nutritional disorders.
Eat a variety of foods.
Eat sufficient grains, roots, vegetables, and fruits.
Select a diet low in saturated fats, cholesterol, and oil.
Eat sugar and sweets in moderation.
Maintain a healthy weight.
Healthy and Unhealthy food
healthy diets are made up mainly of nutrient-rich foods, such as legumes, fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy products, lean protein and nuts and seeds. Unhealthy diets are high in fat, saturated fat, trans fat, sodium and added sugars. These diets often contain a lot of processed or fast foods that are high in calories but don't contain many nutrients. People following a healthy diet watch their portion sizes so they maintain a healthy weight, since both the quantity and the quality of the food you eat is important for a healthy diet.
Eating
Eating (also known as consuming) is the ingestion of food or other object, usually to provide heterotrophic organisms their nutritional or medicinal needs, particularly for energy and growth. Animals and other heterotrophs must eat in order to survive: carnivores eat other animals, herbivores eat plants,omnivores consume a mixture of both plant and animal matter, and detritivores eat detritus. Fungi digest organic matter outside of their bodies as opposed to animals that digest their food inside their bodies. For humans, eating is an activity of daily living.
