来自加拿大、芬兰的营养师。法国和瑞典在糖尿病动脉粥样硬化干预研究中探索了向糖尿病和血脂异常患者教授膳食计划的方法。餐盘模型是欧洲常用的一种方法，是传统的基于交换的膳食计划教学方法的一种简单替代方法。在这种视觉方法中，餐盘作为饼图显示盘子的比例，应该被各种食物组覆盖。食物的部分和适当的食物选择可以以各种形式的模型来描述膳食和零食。展示模型的方法从专业摄影到手绘草图和食物复制品的展示。该模式对成人学习者的好处包括加强饮食理论和实践之间的联系，通过视觉信息促进记忆力的保持和理解，以及积极的营养咨询方法的经验。各种美食和节日食品可以纳入模型。盘子模型提供了一种简单而通用的膳食计划方法。需要评估该模型的有效性及其对其他人群的应用。
Dietitians from Canada, Finland. France, and Sweden have explored methods of teaching meal planning to persons with diabetes and dyslipidemia in the Diabetes Atherosclerosis Intervention Study. The Plate Model, a method commonly used in Europe, is a simple alternative to the traditional exchange-based method for teaching meal planning. In this visual method, a dinner plate serves as a pie chart to show proportions of the plate that should be covered by various food groups. Portions of foods and appropriate food choices can be depicted for meals and snacks in assorted forms of the model. Methods of presenting the model range from professional photography to hand-drawn sketches and displays of food replicas. Benefits of the model for adult learners include enhancement of the connection between dietary theory and practice, promotion of memory retention and understanding through visual messages, and experience of a positive approach to nutrition counseling. Various cuisines and festive foods can be incorporated into the model. The Plate Model offers a meal planning approach that is simple and versatile. The effectiveness of the model and its applications to other populations need to be evaluated.
