Nutrition education is more likely to be effective when nutrition and education professionals set goals in working with individuals. In an effort to assist such professionals with these goals, 24 objectives for nutrition education were identified and validated. Teachers, dietitians, and nutritionists can use these objectives in analyzing and targeting their nutrition efforts to influence behavior change in students, patients, employees, and clients. Ways to use the objectives and a process for behavior change to use with students are suggested.
