National Nutrition Month

A nutrition education and information campaign sponsored annually by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, National Nutrition Month^®, held annually in March, focuses attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits. The Academy’s National Nutrition Month^® press releases feature information for the media on activities and messages that the Academy highlights every March — along with events and initiatives around RDN Day and NDTR Day.

National Nutrition Month® started in 1973 as National Nutrition Week, and it became a month-long observance in 1980 in response to growing interest in nutrition.

The theme for National Nutrition Month^® 2024 is “Beyond the Table.”
