March is Nutrition Month and the perfect opportunity for the local health unit to emphasize the role of registered dietitians as the reliable source for nutrition information and health-eating guidance.

“Healthy eating goes beyond making good food choices, it’s about embracing mindful habits like taking your time to eat and listening to your hunger cues, cooking more often and eating meals with others, and enjoying your food, including celebrating your culture and food traditions,” explained Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit registered dietitian Elsie Azevedo Perry.
