NATIONAL NUTRITION MONTH 2021
National Nutrition Month® is an annual campaign created by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. During the month of March, everyone is invited to learn about making informed food choices and developing healthful eating and physical activity habits. This is a four week series that I will share with you weekly!
This year's theme is "Personalize Your Plate." There is no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition and health. We are all unique with different bodies, goals, backgrounds and tastes! Look for weekly healthful messages and practice with your family and model a healthy lifestyle for the children in your family! Let’s dive into week one…
Week One: Eat a variety of nutritious foods every day!
- Include healthful foods from all food groups.
- Hydrate with water and other low sugar liquids.
- Learn how to read Nutrition Fact Panels.
- Avoid distractions while eating
- Take time to enjoy your food.
The website below has many great ideas to help your child learn about healthy food options and lifestyle. Check it out!
