National Nutrition Month: From Buzzwords to Balanced Nutrition, PAs Can Guide Patients
The internet is full of nutrition advice, but much of it can be misleading. Social media often values engagement over accuracy, causing confusion and spreading misinformation. As PAs, we play a role in helping patients distinguish facts from myths and make evidence-based choices.
During National Nutrition Month in March, let’s focus on educating individuals about the importance of a balanced and nutritious diet. Encourage informed food choices, emphasize the role of registered dietitians in providing expert guidance and promote physical activity as a key complement to healthy eating.
