Did you know that March is National Nutrition Month®? 🥗
The campaign is designed to focus attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits. So today we are going to share a few tips with you! 🤩
1. Eat whole foods.
If you want to eat better, choose foods that are in their natural form and avoid processed foods.
2. A healthy gut is a happy gut.
Eat foods that contain probiotics, which can aid digestion and create and maintain a good balance of healthy bacteria in your gut.
3. Avoid sugary drinks.
Sodas, sports beverages, or even sweet tea can add too much sugar, calories or salt to your diet. Fruit juice doesn’t give you the fiber or nutrients you need.
4. Eat the rainbow.
Try a variety of fruits and vegetables, especially of those of different colors, to keep things fresh and interesting. If the thought of piling fruit on to your plate doesn’t seem appealing, add them to ice cream, yogurt or smoothies. And if you don’t like veggies, try roasting them or dipping them in a small amount of dressing for additional flavor.
5. Less is more.
Portion size is one of the biggest problems facing Americans who are trying to lose weight. When dining out, set aside half of your meal immediately. Not only does this give you lunch or dinner for tomorrow, but you won’t overeat today.
We'd love to hear from you! What's your favorite nutrition tip?!
