Fun Facts for March
March Is National Nutrition Month and March 11th Is Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day!
Created by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, National Nutrition Month® encourages building healthy eating habits and making informed food choices. The Academy also established Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day in 2008 to increase the awareness of Dietitians as the experts in the field of nutrition. In celebration, here are a few fun, science‑backed nutrition facts:
Fun Nutrition Facts
- Did you know sesame seeds are one of the most calcium-dense plant foods? If you pair this with vitamin D from some springtime sunshine, you’ll get a nice boost to support your bone health!
- Cooked carrots give your body a nutrient boost. Cooking carrots makes beta‑carotene easier for your body to convert into vitamin A.
- Protein works best in portions! Spacing it out through the day supports better muscle building than one big protein load.
