Welcome to our "did you know" nutrition series!

Did you know...
that 1 bell pepper in any color has more vitamin C than 1 medium navel orange?

Vitamin C plays an important role in immune health and skin health. It also functions as a powerful antioxidant to help protect our cells from damage.

Add bell peppers to salads, stir fries, tacos, or use as a crunchy snack.

Enjoy!

August is National Immunization Awareness Month!

Your health is worth protecting—at every age.

Vaccines aren’t just for kids. They’re a vital part of staying healthy throughout life. From childhood immunizations to adult boosters and seasonal vaccines like flu and RSV, staying up to date helps protect you and those around you.

Did you know?
• Vaccines prevent serious illnesses like measles, pneumonia, shingles, and HPV.
• Many children have fallen behind on routine vaccines—now’s the time to catch up.
• Adults may need boosters or new vaccines based on age, health conditions, or lifestyle.

What you can do:
• Check your vaccine records!
• Schedule a visit with your healthcare provider.
• Ask about vaccines recommended for your age and health needs.
• Share this message to help others stay informed!

Let’s keep our community strong and healthy—one vaccine at a time.
