This May 2025 Nutrition Times, a publication of AHS Nutrition Services, focuses on the new Front-of-Package Food Label along with the benefits of making your own foods rather than purchasing processed options. It offers practical suggestions and recipes for common food items across various categories, including breakfast and baked goods, salad dressing, sauces, dips, soups, side dishes, and snacks. The primary reasons highlighted for this approach are to control the amounts of salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats, and to increase fibre and nutrient content. Contact information for several nutrition classes are also provided with numerous resources and how to contact a Registered Dietitian.
