It’s National Nutrition Month and what a perfect time to learn how to buy healthy foods for you and your family. Understanding the Nutrition Facts panel on your foods can help you make food choices that contribute to lifelong healthy eating habits. From servings sizes to calories to added sugar; label changes have made it easier to make nutritious choices.
Where to begin? Watch this informative video “Food Label Smarts” from the American Heart Association, read this helpful article on using Nutrition Facts Labels and check out this fact sheet from the FDA all about Understanding Serving Sizes.
In honor of National Nutrition Month, HR is focusing our Monthly Well-Being Programming surrounding this important topic. For more information on programming, visit the Human Resources Work/Life - Health & Wellness webpage and stayed tuned for more information weekly in the Daily Digest and on UConn HR social media pages
