National Nutrition Month
It'll never whip up the frenzy of food holidays such as Christmas or the Super Bowl, but National Nutrition Month is worth marking with your mouth.
The month, started in 1973 by the American Dietetic Association, this time around is urging consumers to eat around the myths of nutrition and focus on the facts, during March and beyond.
The ADA also is encouraging people to schedule annual "nutrition checkup" visits with a registered dietitian with its first Registered Dietitian Day on Monday.
The ADA has more than 67,000 members. For more information, including some recipes and a way to find a registered dietician near you, visit www.eatright.org.
