Below we have assembled relevant Nutrition Month materials that allow you to teach the importance of a nutrient-dense diet that promotes health. Individuals can do that by being aware of how to eat a balanced diet and how to read nutrition facts labels and discovering the Dietary Guidelines and MyPlate. Our motto is, "make it visual, impactful, relevant to the audience, and fun"!

Some more relevant ideas include:

• Consuming fewer calories
