Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's Nutrition Month. We look forward to celebrating again next year. In the meantime, check out the below for useful tips and information to help you achieve your health and nutrition goals.
March is Nutrition Month and it is recognized across Canada – including here at Langara!
The month provides an opportunity to draw attention to a particular facet of nutrition as highlighted by the Dietitians of Canada. This year’s theme is ‘Unlock the Potential of Food’ with the aim to help Canadians learn how they can access a dietitian and to demonstrate how working with a dietitian can help them unlock the potential of food.
The Langara community is invited to join in the events planned for this month. Spread the word with others in the campus community and learn how dietitians can help improve your health, energy, and vitality!
There is also a great collection of resources for those interested in learning more about the benefits of working with a dietitian and how to unlock the potential of food. Read on to learn more!
