Choosing the Right Health-Focused Nutrition Resource

Health-focused nutrition lessons can overlap, but the teaching objective should determine which collection is the best fit.

Choose Nutrition & Disease resources when...

Your lesson focuses on nutrition in relation to chronic disease, health risk factors, or disease-management education.

Choose Weight & Metabolic Health resources when...

Your objective is to demonstrate portions, energy balance, body fat and muscle concepts, or related weight and metabolic health topics. Explore weight and metabolic health teaching tools.

Choose Life Stages Nutrition resources when...

The primary teaching need is tied to childhood, pregnancy, adulthood, or healthy aging rather than a specific disease topic. Explore life stages nutrition resources.

Choose general visual aids when...

You need a broader poster, handout, display, or model that is not centered on a specific health condition. Explore nutrition education visual aids.
