Get Ready for Nutrition Month!

Nutrition Poster

Nutrition Month is a great time to focus on the health lessons that matter most to you and your clients. Fuel for the Future looks at sustainability but it can also be spun to help individual audiences fuel their futures by reading food labels, learning to plan meals, eating fewer ultra-processed foods, and gravitating towards a more plant based diet. Maybe they just need a little help cooking local vegetables in season? It could be as simple as helping them use an air fryer to make French fries that their family loves!

The National Nutrition Month theme is "Fuel for the Future" - here are excellent Nutrition Month Activities:

  • Talk about sustainability and better food choices. We have a handout here to make eating sustainability easy.

  • Do a cooking demo to introduce your clients to some foods on the handout, like lentils or local produce in season.

  • Have a contest to see who can make the most exciting veggie burger. Or who can use mushrooms for dinner since they have a meatlike flavor called umami.

  • Show and tell cooking utensils that make life and plant-based cooking easier. Use our top 10 list for kitchen equipment. Or add your own.

  • Show how it makes a difference to compare food labels. That is certainly a skill for fueling anyone’s future!

  • Join as a member to see all our handouts for nutrition month, cooking demos, and even more recipes.

Instead of staying up all night researching studies and creating presentations, let Food and Health do the work for you. There are always amazing new materials in the Nutrition Education Store. We also happily create products upon request.
