Impact of MyPlate and the healthy highway program-based nutrition education intervention on preschoolers’ knowledge and food choice

Nutrition education intervention has been shown to be effective in identifying food types and differentiating between healthy and unhealthy food among preschool children. The use of food cards and visual materials can be a valid strategy for determining the effectiveness of nutrition education. Developing financially accessible, plausible, and culturally pertinent methods to enhance student health through nutrition education may augment preschool students' knowledge and healthy choice of foods.
