A purpose-driven model of an ideal human diet, ordered by biological intent rather than industrial priorities or scientifically reductive recommendations. Foods are organized into tiers based on their role in sustaining life and vitality.

Tier 3 Foods
Sugar-rich and fat-rich foods that are made specifically to attract animals for dispersal/pollination.

Tier 4 Foods
Supporting structural/functional plant parts that are used as defenses, photosynthetic machinery, or storage organs.
