The American Dietetic Association has declared today the third annual Registered Dietitian’s Day! Eatright.org states, “As the nation’s food and nutrition experts, registered dietitians are committed to improving the health of their patients and community. Registered Dietitian Day commemorates the dedication of Registered Dietitians as advocates for advancing the nutritional status of Americans and people around the world. There are over 70,000 registered dietitian members.”
I love being a dietitian and having the opportunity to share my love of nutrition and food with my clients. Since it’s National Nutrition Month, I wanted to point out a couple of things. First, we (as in The Rite Bite) are tweeting nutrition tips of the day. You can follow us on Twitter or just visit our home page to read a new nutrition tip each day. Second, I thought this blog on eatright.org (http://www.eatright.org/Media/Blog.aspx?id=4294968185&blogid=269) with its 31 tips and tricks was a great way to bring even more nutritional health to your National Nutrition Month.
We want to know what you’re doing. What are your tips for healthy eating this month? Leave a comment and let us know. And, to all you Registered Dietitians today, Happy Registered Dietitian’s Day!
