It's National Nutrition Month!

Each year in March we celebrate National Nutrition Month.  This year's theme is "Eat Right with Color." 
What does it mean to eat with color? Well when you eat a variety of fruits and vegetables of various colors you guarantee a diet rich in nutrients, flavors, textures and shapes found in food.  Eating a variety of food also enhances our eating pleasure. Eating a rainbow of colors will put you on the road to good health.  So why not aim for orange, red, tan, yellow and green produce today!

National nutrition month is sponsored by the American Dietetic Association. To learn more about "Eat right with color" visit http://www.eatright.org/
