🌱✨ Welcome to Nutrition Month 2025! ✨🌱As a dietitian, I know how powerful the right nutrition can be. This March, I’m excited to share how food can nourish more than just our bodies—it nourishes our minds, our emotions, and our overall well-being. Let’s nourish our bodies to flourish, together! #NutritionMonth2025 #NourishToFlourish

Physiological wellbeing is one of the subthemes of Nutrition Month 2025: Nourish to Flourish. Nutrition plays a role in supporting our overall health and bodily functions.

Good nutrition is essential for health at every stage of life. Eating the right balance of foods provides the vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, amino acids, and antioxidants our bodies need for:
✅ Growth and repair
✅ Physical health and performance
✅ Disease prevention and management

Adequate nutrition supports health across the lifespan—from pregnancy and infancy to adulthood and aging. It plays a key role in preventing malnutrition (both under- and overnutrition), strengthening the immune system, reducing the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and promoting longevity.

Protein is an essential nutrient to keep your body functioning well. Here are some tips for healthy protein choices.
