Healthy Eating

Healthy Eating for a Healthy Weight

Healthy Eating is important for all age levels. Starting with breastfeeding for infants, a lifetime of choosing nutrient dense food and beverages will contribute to lowering risk factors for many chronic diseases and conditions. To make healthy eating and physical activity a priority for your entire family, the United States Department of Agriculture MyPlate website has information on menus, meal plans, and healthy eating on a budget.

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is also a great resource for recipes and cooking tips. The National Heart Lung and Blood Institute has some great recipes that show you how eating less fat, cholesterol, and sodium can make a difference while tasting great also.
