NUTRITION NOTES

National Nutrition Month

March is National Nutrition Month. During this month, we celebrate all that food does for us. This year the theme is “Eat right, bite by bite.” This theme encourages small changes that can be made bite by bite, to improve our health through the foods we choose. Enjoy chips and guacamole? Have you ever tried vegetables with guacamole instead? Try dipping bell pepper sticks or carrots into that creamy guacamole to increase your vegetable intake and decrease salt intake! Are you currently drinking or using whole milk to cook with? Go for a 2 percent or skim milk to lower your saturated fat intake; your heart will thank you! Lastly, just by rinsing canned beans and vegetables under running water, we can reduce up to 40 percent of the added salt! Eating right, bite by bite, can take your nutrition to new levels this month!
