29/03/05 The University of Michigan Integrative Medicine Clinical Services (UMIMCS) has unveiled its Healing Foods Pyramid, which emphasizes foods known to have healing benefits, plant-based choices, variety and balance, support of a healthful environment, and mindful eating.
This Healing Foods Pyramid begins with a foundation of water. A rainbow of fruits and vegetables is followed by whole grains, then legumes, healthy fats, dairy, eggs, lean meats, fish and seafood, seasonings such as herbs, onions, and garlic, then accompaniments including alcohol, dark chocolate and tea. A final category remains empty, awaiting the user's addition of food healing to that individual, to be consumed occasionally, thus personalizing each pyramid.
The Healing Foods Pyramid is available online at http://www.med.umich.edu/umim/clinical/pyramid/index.htm.
