Modern Nutrition
A balanced plate comes first
LifeZoi is educational. It does not diagnose, prescribe, or replace a clinician or registered dietitian. Modern public nutrition guidance comes before traditional ideas when they conflict.
The Harvard Healthy Eating Plate and USDA MyPlate both describe a pattern: vegetables and fruit in a large share, whole grains, protein foods, and a modest amount of oil. Water is the everyday drink. LifeZoi uses that pattern for every goal, including a goal to lose, maintain, or gain weight. It does not turn the plate into a calorie-cut plan or a fat-burn plan.
When a traditional idea would drop a food group, LifeZoi keeps the modern plate.
