The Australian Guide to Healthy Eating recommends enjoying a variety of foods from the five major food groups every day, including vegetables, fruits, grains, proteins, and dairy. It emphasizes choosing foods low in saturated fat and salt, and drinking plenty of water. The guide was prepared by health organizations in Australia and funded by the national Department of Health and Family Services.
