Set the Table to Eat Healthy

In an effort to teach consumers about the new Nutrition Facts label and to help them make healthy food choices, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has a toolkit to help make nutrition education easier.

The Health Educator’s Nutrition Toolkit includes tips for making healthy food choices when grocery shopping; how to bring nutrition home; how to select healthier foods when eating out; and how to read the Nutrition Facts panel. It also includes evaluation tools and presentation tools that are ready to use.

Social media messages and graphics are also available to help encourage consumers to make healthier food choices.
