Summary: National Nutrition Month is an educational campaign focusing on the significance of physical fitness as well as eating nourishing meals. The campaign, originally “National Nutrition Week,” was first launched in 1973, with the theme “Invest in Yourself – Buy Nutrition.”

The American Dietetic Association (ADA) was an early advocate in getting the message to the public organizing educational events held in schools and health care centers. By the beginning of 1980, due to an intense increase in popularity, the House of Delegates expanded National Nutrition Week to National Nutrition month. ADA is now known as the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and, with more than 70,000 members, is the world’s largest organization of registered dietitian nutritionists and dietetic technicians.

This year’s theme is "Celebrate a World of Flavors", focusing attention on healthful eating.
