August 5th – What’s on the Nutrition Facts Label?

There's a new nutrition label out there! Let's review the changes together

As always, sessions begin at 2:00. All sessions are free, will last 
approximately 45 minutes, and are provided via WebEx.  To join, you will 
need either a computer, tablet, or smartphone with speakers.  Webinars will 
be recorded and posted as they become available. If you missed a session,

Next up is:

August 12th – Added Sugars

In the past several years, sugar has become increasingly prevalent in the 
American diet. Come to this engaging workshop to learn about how your health 
may be affected by excess sugar, the differences between natural and added 
sugars, how and where to find sugars in the foods you eat (they tend to hide 
in sneaky places!), and how to figure out just how much sugar you are 
eating.  Jennifer Shukaitis, MPH, FCHS Educator, State Office
