Let’s prove that eating balanced doesn’t have to break the bank.

That’s exactly what Dominique set out to show.

With just $10.50, she built a balanced meal:
• Salmon for protein
• Broccoli for vegetables
• Potatoes for carbohydrates

Too often, we hear that eating healthy is too expensive but with the right choices, it can be both affordable and nutritious.

During National Nutrition Month, the Indiana Minority Health Coalition is encouraging our community to rethink what’s possible when it comes to healthy eating.

It doesn’t have to be perfect.
It just has to be intentional.

Food is Fuel for Your Brain
Did you know your brain uses about 20% of your body's energy every day? That means the foods you eat play a big role in how you think, focus, and feel throughout the day.
During National Nutrition Month, the Indiana Minority Health Coalition is encouraging everyone to make small, healthy choices that power both your body and your mind.

Dominique, Special Projects Coordinator, shares one of her favorite brain-fuel snacks:

Apple slices with almond butter and cinnamon
This simple snack provides:
✔ healthy fats
✔ natural energy
✔ nutrients that help support brain

Healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes the best choices are the simplest ones.

What’s your favorite healthy snack for energy during the day?
