The Department of Veterans Affairs is recognizing National Nutrition Month in March. This awareness month is an opportunity for people to reassess their habits and make healthy changes. The theme of National Nutrition Month is focused on the impact of food and beverage choices.
Veterans can work with a VA dietitian nutritionist to develop healthy habits. VA facilities offer programs such as the Healthy Teaching Kitchen, which provides classes on nutrition and meal preparation. These classes are available to VA-enrolled Veterans and their support persons.

Our analysis The VA's celebration of National Nutrition Month highlights the importance of nutrition in overall health and wellbeing for veterans. By offering resources such as Healthy Teaching Kitchen programs, nutrition counseling, and the MOVE! Weight Management Program, the VA provides veterans with the tools they need to make healthy choices and achieve their personal health goals. The availability of these programs at VA facilities across the country, including the Veterans Canteen Service, demonstrates the VA's commitment to supporting veterans' health and wellbeing. Additionally, the VA's emphasis on whole health and evidence-based nutrition care suggests a comprehensive approach to healthcare that goes beyond just treating illnesses, but also focuses on prevention and wellness. Veterans can take advantage of these resources to develop healthy eating and physical activity habits, and connect with others who are on a similar path to wellness. The VA's support tools can be a valuable resource for veterans looking to make positive changes in their lives.
