Huron -Perth Dieticians Day 16 A focus on Air mental health and nutrition Huron County - Each year, March is celebrated as Nutrition Month by Dieti- tians of Canada. The theme for 2017, Take the Fight out of Food, is meant to help Canadians learn to enjoy food and the eating experience. In honour of Nutrition Month, the Huron -Perth Dietitians Network hosted an education day on March 29th at the Huron County Health Unit. This year's event included speakers focusing on mental health and nutrition, fol- lowed by an expert panel discussion. Topics covered include body positivity, weight bias, eating disorders, and the relationship between food and well-being. The event was attended by over 40 health professionals many were Registered Die- titians working in hospitals, community centres, family health teams, and public heath sectors across Huron and Perth counties. Public Health Dietitian Elizabeth Higgins says nutri- tion is such an important topic for all people and the link to mental health is significant. "What we eat can affect how we feel, and how we feel can affect what we eat. Hun- ger isn't the only reason we eat- we eat when we're happy, stressed, or depressed, too. Understand- ing our own eating cues is an important step toward hav- ing a healthy relationship with food." Higgins says it's important to focus on adding healthy behaviours, instead of limit- ing them. "For example, try a recipe, cuisine, or fresh vegetable you haven't tried before. There's room for all foods in a balanced, healthy diet. When we focus on cutting out or restricting certain foods, we lose out on the enjoyment and pleasure that goes into eating."
