March is National Nutrition Month. <\/span>Three months <\/span>into the new year<\/span>, <\/span>our dust-covered<\/span> resolutions<\/span> are begging <\/span>for attention<\/span>. <\/span>Whether we plan<\/span>ned<\/span> to <\/span>eat healthier, work<\/span> <\/span>out <\/span>more or just be a better person<\/span> in 2022<\/span>, <\/span>surveys have shown<\/span><\/a> that most Americans have given up on their resolution by now. What can be done?<\/span><\/p>\n

We sat down with Cameron Nutrition <\/span>to discuss National Nutrition Month<\/span> y <\/span>her tips and tricks <\/span>f<\/span>o<\/span>r<\/span> <\/span>sustaining<\/span> <\/span>healthy eating habits<\/span> <\/span>throughout the year<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Focus on Flavor<\/span><\/h2>\n

Sodium <\/span>sparks <\/span>a firework of flavor<\/span> <\/span>\u2013<\/span> <\/span>however, we<\/span> often<\/span> <\/span>consume <\/span>much more than the suggested amount (<\/span>less than <\/span>2<\/span>,<\/span>300 mg\/day). <\/span>Finding flavor substitutes is key <\/span>to<\/span> reducing sodium consumption. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThink about the herbs, spices and acidic flavors you can be adding into the mix<\/span>,<\/span>\u201d Nutrition suggests. <\/span><\/p>\n

Seasonings come in many forms, <\/span>so pulling out the spices and putting away the salt <\/span>is achievable. <\/span>Cooking <\/span>from home<\/span> <\/span>also <\/span>allows you <\/span>to <\/span>better control ingredients and portion sizes. <\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, they<\/span>\u00a0recommend m<\/span>ixing more vegetables, fruits, and<\/span>\u00a0whole grains<\/span> into your<\/span> meals<\/span>.<\/span> <\/span>\u201c<\/span>Here at<\/span> Cameron,<\/span> we are going to have samples of foods like star<\/span> <\/span>fruit, dragon fruit and jackfruit<\/span> to celebrate National Nutrition Month<\/span>.<\/span>\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Jackfruit is a popular substitute for meat because of it<\/span>s texture and cooking properties<\/span>.<\/span> Th<\/span>is and other<\/span> simple <\/span>substitutions<\/span> to your plate can boost fiber and vitamins while <\/span>delighting your taste buds<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Healthy Snacking<\/span><\/h2>\n

Snacking can make or break a healthy eating routine. <\/span>Healthy <\/span>snack<\/span>ing can <\/span>sustain your energy levels between meals <\/span>y<\/span> <\/span>prevent you from<\/span> overindulg<\/span>ing<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

When snackin<\/span>g<\/span>,<\/span> Cameron Nutrition recommends<\/span> mixing <\/span>two<\/span> or more food groups. Vegetables and peanut butter, fruit and cheese, or yogurt with seeds and granola are all great <\/span>ways to pair foods <\/span>f<\/span>or a healthy snack. Additionally, a light snack between lunch and dinner will reduce overeating at night, <\/span>which is <\/span>a common problem<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/h2>\n

Watch Your Sugar Intake<\/span><\/h2>\n

Sugar and artificial <\/span>sweeteners<\/span> can <\/span>wreak havoc<\/span> on your diet, sleep<\/span> schedule<\/span> and energy levels.<\/span> While we know des<\/span>s<\/span>erts and breakfast foods are high in sugar, we often neglect the sugar content in unsweet<\/span>ened<\/span> foods like crackers, ready<\/span>-to-<\/span>eat snacks and pasta sauces. Make sure to look at the nutrition labels before consuming<\/span> pre-packaged food,<\/span> even if you don\u2019t associate that food group with sugar<\/span>!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, they<\/span> suggest replacing high-sugar beverages with fruit-infused water<\/span> <\/span>y <\/span>other reduced-sugar drinks. \u201cIt\u2019s simple<\/span>:<\/span> <\/span>L<\/span>ess than 10% of your daily calories should come from sugar.<\/span>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Aim<\/span>ing<\/span> for Consistency<\/span><\/h2>\n

National <\/span>Nutrition<\/span> Month shouldn\u2019t be the only time you focus on your eating habits. On average, it takes around eight weeks to establish a new routine or habit. <\/span>Keep up the consistency, and eventually you will see yourself naturally choosing healthier foods.<\/span><\/p>\n
