Whole Grains for Growing Minds: Nourishing the Next Generation

Research shows that introducing children to the flavors and textures of whole grains at a young age can help establish healthy habits that will last a lifetime. In this session, Dr. Juliana Cohen, Adjunct Professor of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health, will discuss her research looking at whole grain acceptability in the school lunchroom and share why school lunches offer such an ideal opportunity for exposing kids to whole grains. Sharon Palmer, MSFS, RDN, The Plant-Powered Dietitian will then speak about the nutrition benefits of whole grains in children’s diets and what the recommendations are for different age groups, as well as sharing tips for helping kids get excited about whole grains. This session is one of several events happening worldwide to celebrate International Whole Grain Day.
