Food Guide for the Brazilian Population: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Access evidence-based dietary recommendations focused on fresh foods for the general public and nutrition professionals in Brazil.

The Food Guide for the Brazilian Population provides dietary recommendations based on scientific evidence to help people make healthier food choices.

Who it's for

This resource is intended for use by the general public to improve daily eating habits. It also serves as an essential professional tool for nutritionists who need to follow national frameworks and guidelines to support their patients effectively.

What you get

You receive access to evidence-based dietary recommendations that prioritize the consumption of fresh foods. The guide is designed to help you understand how to build a healthier diet by focusing on whole, minimally processed ingredients rather than highly processed food products.

What it costs you

There is no financial cost to access this information. The guide is provided through free digital access, allowing anyone to view the recommendations online.

The catch to know

It is important to understand that this is a reference document used to guide general nutritional habits. It is not a rigid, personalized diet plan that prescribes exact portions or specific meals for an individual. It serves as a broad framework for healthy eating rather than a strict set of rules for a single person.
