The Livewell Plate The University of Aberdeen, in partnership with the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF), have developed what they call the Livewell Plate – a diet that is both healthy and environmentally friendly. The Livewell Plate recommend over a third of our diet should be fruit and vegetables and another third should be starchy foods like potatoes, pasta or rice. The last third should be split between treats, milk and dairy foods, and protein-rich foods like beans, eggs, fish and meat. Research shows that many of us eat much more meat than is good for our health, our planet and our wallet. By eating a little less meat and dairy, and bulking out our diet with more vegetables and whole grains, researchers believe we can be healthier, environmentally friendly and save some money in the process.
