Nutrition in the News
EVERY RDN AND NDTR SHOULD HAVE AN NPI NUMBER
The National Provider Identifier (NPI) is a unique, 10-digit number that is available to all
providers and practitioners who supply health care services. As stated by the Academy of
Nutrition & Dietetics, all credentialed nutrition and dietetics professionals, including RDNs
and NDTRs, should have an NPI number regardless of work environment and payment
status. It is required by law that all health care providers who are HIPAA-covered entities
must obtain an NPI when transmitting electronic health information in connection with
HIPAA standard transactions. An NPI must be obtained before enrolling as a Medicare
provider or becoming credentialed with Medicaid or private payers.
Learn more about the various types of NPIs and how you can apply for one at

Nutrition in the News NATIONAL NUTRITION MONTH March is National Nutrition Month. National Nutrition Month is an annual campaign created by the Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics that invites everyone to learn about and develop healthy eating and physical activity habits. This year’s theme is Celebrate a World of Flavors. To help celebrate National Nutrition Month, The Academy has created a campaign toolkit that includes tip sheets and handouts, games, activities, and PowerPoint presentations. In addition to this, the Academy has created an interactive social media toolkit to help promote this year’s theme! Learn more about National Nutrition Month and access the Academy’s toolkits at https://www.eatright.org/food/resources/national- nutrition-month. PROPOSED BYLAWS AMENDMENT The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is proposing a change to Article II Members, Section 7b: Associate Member Qualifications. The Associate Member category was originally adopted in 2011 and last updated by the House of Delegates in 2017. After discussion and thoughtful consideration, The Member and Student Advisory Committee (MSAC) has proposed an amendment to the Bylaws. The MSAC has proposed that the qualifications for Associate category membership be expanded to include individuals with degrees in public health and public policy. The purpose of the proposed amendment is to build collaboration and increase inclusion of non-dietitian, allied professionals who support food, nutrition, and dietetics professionals. Academy members have until March 26 to comment on the proposed Bylaws amendment. The proposed Bylaws can be found at https://www.eatrightpro.org/news-center/member- updates/events-and-deadlines/proposed-bylaws-amendment?_zs=gSuEa&_zl=uVRw2. Let the delegates know if you support the proposed changes by completing this survey https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/YNBSJPY. MEDICARE PART B MNT BENEFITS IMPROVEMENTS In its annual comments to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Academy offered numerous recommendations to reduce barriers to MNT and other services provided to address nutrition-related conditions. Read the full commentary at https://www.eatrightpro.org/news-center/member-updates/events-and- deadlines/proposed-bylaws-amendment?_zs=gSuEa&_zl=uVRw2.

National Nutrition Month
Morgan Harm
Every March we celebrate National Nutrition Month as a way to promote nutrition education,
informed food choices, and the importance of overall health. As dietitians, National Nutrition
Month is also a way for us to advocate for our profession as the most valuable and credible
sources of evidence-based food and nutrition information. Although we celebrate yearly, have
you ever wondered why National Nutrition Month started? Keep reading to learn more about
the history of National Nutrition Month!
Before National Nutrition Month was a whole month, it started as National Nutrition Week in
1973. The theme was “Invest in Yourself–Buy Nutrition” and the week was launched with a
presidential proclamation. It wasn’t until 1980 that National Nutrition Week expanded to
National Nutrition Month. This was due in large part to the public’s growing interest in health
and nutrition.
Meanwhile, in 1977, the American Dietetic Association (ADA) introduced Nutribird–a bird
with “a body shaped like a head of lettuce and a carrot beak.” Nutribird was utilized as a mascot
for National Nutrition Week and appeared in TV announcements, radio broadcasts, and even
song recordings to help promote good nutrition. Many dietitians and dietetic interns at the
time wore Nutribird costumes to share nutrition education messages. Eventually, Nutritbird
became obsolete in the 1980s as ADA ambassadors became spokespeople for National
Nutrition Month and greater funding was obtained for different promotional materials.
Throughout the 1980s the ADA continued to develop creative yearly themes and found new
ways to promote National Nutrition Month with posters and table tents. These promotional
materials even made their debut on national television when they were featured as school
cafeteria props on the shows Head of the Class and Growing Pains. By the 90s, the ADA pivoted
towards simplifying their themes choosing, “Eat Right America” as easy to understand with
mass appeal. This eventually became the inspiration for the current Eat Right website today.
With the rise in technology over the course of the late 90s and early 2000s, members of the
ADA began to send out emails and newsletters with healthful tips during National Nutrition
Month. 2009 marked the year where the ADA created a new organizational identity and the
theme of “Eat Right” encouraged consumers to make informed choices. Over the past decade
we have continued to see changes in nutrition messaging during National Nutrition Month as
technology continues to evolve.
Despite the many changes over the years, National Nutrition Month has been a continued
success largely due to passionate RDNs, NDTRs, and dietetic interns alike. As National Nutrition
Month continues to grow, I’m sure the goal of increasing the public’s awareness of the
importance of good nutrition and highlighting dietitians as the authority in nutrition will
remain the same. https://www.eatright.org/food/resources/national-nutrition-month/history-timeline
