ICMR FIVE FOOD GROUPS
Five Food Group Systems

Significance of the five-food group system

The five food group system can be used for the following purposes :
i. Planning wholesome balanced menus to achieve nutritional adequacy.
ii. Assessing nutritional status – a brief diet history of an individual can disclose inadequacies of food and nutrients from any of the five groups.

Based on the assessment, nutrition education can be imparted to the individual.
