NUTRITION

Nutrition readiness is your commitment to fueling both body and mind with the right foods to support mission success, disease prevention, and overall operational performance. Adopting a healthy eating pattern that fits your lifestyle, duties, and individual health needs is an essential part of holistic health. As we continue to expand PHS Mission Fit, nutrition will play a central role in helping Public Health Service officers maintain peak performance.

Resources

Nutrition resources will be provided once the updated Dietary Guidelines for Americans are released. These guidelines will inform evidence-based tools and educational materials in building sustainable, mission ready nutrition practices.

If you need individualized support or guidance with nutrition, please contact your healthcare provider who can refer you to a Registered Dietitian. Public Health Service officers can also ask for a referral to the Armed Forces Wellness Center for personalized assessments and health coaching, or they can self-refer.
