Supplements are popular — but do you need them? Vitamins and supplements are part of many Australians’ daily routines — a recent Nielsen report found that 11.8 million Australians take vitamins.

For some people, supplements can be helpful. For others, they may not be needed — or may not be the best first step.

Before starting a new vitamin or supplement, it’s worth checking in with a qualified health professional, such as your GP, pharmacist or Accredited Practising Dietitian. They can help you understand what’s right for your body, whether testing is recommended, and whether a supplement is safe alongside any medicines or health conditions.

A food-first approach is a great place to start, with supplements used when there’s a clear need.

💜Food first. Advice first. Supplements when needed.

Winter can change our rhythm — and that’s normal. Shorter days, colder mornings and busy routines can all affect how we eat, move, sleep and feel.

Nutrition NSW encourages simple, sustainable steps to support wellbeing through winter:

⭐Build meals around vegetables, wholegrains and lean protein
⭐Be salt smart and cut back on salt and processed foods
⭐Stay hydrated with water, warm drinks or broth-based meals
⭐Keep regular eating patterns to support energy and concentration
⭐Pair nutrition habits with sleep, movement and social connection

Small, achievable changes can help people maintain energy and wellbeing during the colder months.

“Winter is a season when many of us need a little extra care. Nourishing food, regular routines and the right support can make a meaningful difference to how people feel day to day. At Nutrition NSW, we work alongside you to provide practical, evidence-based nutrition advice that supports your health, your family and your community through the colder months.” Cr Barbara Ward, President, Nutrition NSW.

National Stroke Week (3rd - 9th August) is a reminder that prevention matters.

The Stroke Foundation says more than 80% of strokes can be prevented — and healthy eating can help reduce key risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes and unhealthy weight.

This week, learn the F.A.S.T. signs of stroke — Face, Arms, Speech and Time — and consider one small food habit that could support your long-term health.

Want to support stroke prevention through healthier food habits? Speak with Nutrition NSW today about practical nutrition education and wellness programs for your workplace or community.

💜We love International Self-Care Day!💜

It’s a great mid-year reminder that self-care is critical for overall health – and it doesn’t need to be complicated. Small, realistic habits can help support our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing over time.

Here at Nutrition NSW we’re each choosing one simple self-care action: step away from our desks and head outside for some fresh air and sunlight to support our vitamin D, nourish our body with something colourful and nutritious, or catch up with a friend for a walk, coffee or shared meal. 🌞🚶🏽‍♀️☕

Self-care can also mean creating space to rest. Let’s switch off from screens a little earlier in the evening, giving yourself time to unwind, connect and prepare for a better night’s sleep.

We’re here to support simple, practical and easy everyday choices to help you feel well from the inside out.

“Taking time for self-care is not selfish — it is an important part of looking after our health and being able to show up for ourselves, our families and our communities. Even small moments, like enjoying a nourishing meal, stepping outside for fresh air or making time to rest, can help us feel more balanced and supported,” said Cr Barbara Ward, President of Nutrition NSW.

The launch of Vegemite Kids, with 50% less sodium than the original spread, is a timely reminder that small swaps can help families reduce salt intake. Most Australian children are eating more salt than recommended, and higher salt intake in childhood is linked with higher blood pressure — a risk factor that can follow children into adulthood.

Choosing lower-salt options, checking food labels and building balanced meals are simple steps that can make a real difference over time.

From a nutrition perspective, reducing salt is not about removing flavour or favourite foods altogether. It is about making everyday choices easier for families, such as comparing sodium levels on food labels, choosing reduced-salt products where available, and adding flavour with herbs, spices, lemon, garlic or other fresh ingredients. Over time, these small changes can help children develop healthier taste preferences and support lifelong heart health.

“Reducing salt intake is not only about individual choice, it also depends on food environments - policies and systems that shape what families can access, afford and enjoy every day. Strong food governance, clear labelling, healthier product reformulation and practical community nutrition support can all help make lower-salt choices easier across NSW.

🫶Nutrition NSW continues to advocate for healthier, more accessible food for everybody, working with government, health organisations and community partners to support evidence-based nutrition policies, healthier food environments and practical programs that help people eat well across the lifespan.” Cr Barbara Ward, President of Nutrition NSW.

This National Diabetes Week, we’re shining a light on the rise of type 2 diabetes in younger Australians — and how practical nutrition support can help with prevention, management and long-term health.

Diabetes risk is shaped by many factors, including food access, cost of living pressures, physical activity, stress, family history and access to healthcare. That’s why support needs to be realistic, culturally appropriate and tailored to everyday life.

Nutrition NSW can help individuals and families build practical, sustainable food habits that support long-term health.

JulEYE is National Eye Health Awareness Month!

Good nutrition plays an important role in supporting healthy eyes at every age. While regular eye checks remain essential, eating a balanced diet rich in colourful vegetables, fruit, whole grains and healthy fats can help support overall eye health and may reduce the risk of some nutrition-related eye conditions.

✅Small food choices can support healthy vision
For eye health, nutrients such as vitamins A, C and E, zinc, lutein, zeaxanthin and omega-3 fats are often highlighted because they support the retina, lens and delicate blood vessels in the eyes. The good news is that these nutrients are found in everyday foods!

🍅🍆🥕Choose colourful vegetables
Green, yellow and orange vegetables such as spinach, pumpkin, capsicum, tomatoes and leafy greens provide antioxidants including vitamin C, vitamin E, lutein and zeaxanthin. Try adding them to salads, soups, stir-fries, pasta sauces or as a simple side with dinner.

🫐Add fruit across the day
Citrus fruits, berries and other colourful fruits provide vitamin C, which helps support healthy blood vessels and connective tissue. Keep fruit easy to access for snacks, lunchboxes or breakfast toppers.

👏Swap to whole grains where you can
Wholegrain breads, cereals, oats, brown rice and other less-processed grains provide fibre, vitamin E, zinc and other nutrients that support overall health. Small swaps can make a difference over time.

🍣🥜Include healthy fats
Oily fish, nuts, seeds, avocado and extra virgin olive oil can be part of a balanced eating pattern. Omega-3 fats, found in oily fish such as salmon, sardines and tuna, are linked with supporting retinal health and may help with dry eye symptoms.

National NAIDOC Week is a time to celebrate and recognise the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Through our governance, advocacy and community programs, Nutrition NSW works alongside local and state politicians, advocacy groups, health services and community partners to support practical, evidence-based nutrition education that respects culture, community, Country and lived experience.

“Respect for culture, tradition and community must sit at the heart of how we support better health outcomes. Through listening, collaboration and culturally appropriate nutrition support, we can help empower families and communities to live their healthiest lives.” NSW President Cr Barbara Ward.

This NAIDOC Week, we honour Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and reaffirm our commitment to being part of the solution - advocating for improved food security, strengthening nutrition education programs, and supporting regional initiatives that help families and communities across NSW access healthy, affordable and culturally appropriate food.
