Outcome: Initial Outcome
The Department of Dietetics and Human Nutrition along with FCS Extension provided high school students with hands on experiences where they learned about food as a medicine at this year’s 4-H Teen Conference. Thirteen students participated in two days of activities learning about food and nutrition topics, their impact on overall health, and how this is connected to what we do in the kitchen. Registered Dietitians taught students different food preparation techniques and how to develop nutritious meals using Plate It Up Proud (PIUKP) recipes. As a result of the interactive training 100% of students gained hands on experience in the kitchen preparing meals and found the material relevant.
