Food is fuel, providing energy and nutrients for everyone. It is also an important part of every culture and identity, bringing people together and fostering a sense of belonging.

It can positively impact mental health, and has a role in preventing and treating some diseases. Here are some tips: 

  • Nourish your body with a variety of foods every day.
  • Eat in a way that is enjoyable to you.
  • Notice when you are hungry and when you are full.
  • Use meal planning strategies to help you cook more often and minimize food waste.
  • Use food labels to help you compare and choose products so you can make an informed choice that support your unique needs.
  • Be aware of food and diet marketing that can influence food choices.
  • Our patterns of eating over time are more important than any one meal or snack.
