March is National Nutrition Month

Good nutrition is vital to good health! This March, AAHP joins the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics in celebrating National Nutrition Month® 2019. AAHP encourages all Black Montgomery County residents to join us in learning how nutrition and physical activity can transform lives.

To learn more about nutrition, residents seeking diabetes education can enroll in DMeetings, a comprehensive online diabetes management course. Dmeetings participants have access to AAHP’s registered dietitian, Ms. Linda Goldscholl, who can answer questions about nutrition and meal planning. Residents can also join AAHP’s DMeetings Facebook Group.

AAHP’s Kickstart Your Health classes provide a wealth of information about nutrition and healthy eating to prevent and manage chronic diseases like diabetes, cancer, and hypertension. Each class includes food preparation demos and food samples. Learn more here or RSVP at rsvp@aahpmontgomerycounty.org.
