March is National Nutrition Month, and the eighth annual Cooper Clinic/Cooper Campus Nutrition Expo will take place from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., March 2, at Cooper Aerobics Health & Wellness, with a mission of sharing healthy foods, recipes, new products and ideas. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics urges everyone to, “Savor the Flavor of Eating Right.” This year’s theme encourages everyone to take time to enjoy food traditions and appreciate the pleasures, great flavors and social experiences food can add to our lives.

There will be product promotion and sampling; culinary demonstrations; recipes and information; body fat measurement; blood pressure checks; and games, prizes and drawings. “Slowing down and taking time to appreciate the positive emotions that accompany mealtime are important steps to developing a sustainable healthy eating plan,” says Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Academy President Dr. Evelyn F. Crayton.

Location: Cooper Fitness Center on the Cooper Campus, 12100 Preston Rd., Dallas. For more information, call 214-336-4483 or 972-560-2655 or visit CooperAerobics.com. Be sure to visit the Natural Awakenings table at the Expo.
