Three servings of vegetables, and two servings of fruit: potatoes, carrots, Swiss chard, bananas and pineapple.
Six servings of bread and cereal: toast, cornflakes, pasta, rice, oats...
Two servings of dairy products: cheese and yoghurt.
Two servings of lean meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and nuts.
Eight glasses of water.
