Nutrition and healthy eating have always been hot topics. With so much conflicting information, JM Nutrition Communication Solutions (NCS) helps companies, organizations, and non-profits break through the noise with clear and concise nutrition messaging. We connect the dots between nutrition science and consumers.
Founder, Jo Mandelson MS RDN CBS began NCS after leaving her dream job at MyPlate at the US Department of Agriculture. During her time there, Secretary Vilsack tasked the Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion to “Make MyPlate a Household Name.” As part of the leadership team, Jo managed and worked closely with dietitians, policy officials, and subject matter experts to increase MyPlate’s awareness from 63% among Americans in 2023 to 77% in 2025, according to the latest 2025 IFIC Food and Health Survey.
In 2025, many changes in federal funding impacted the nutrition field. As a dietitian, Latina, and former school lunch kid – Jo felt it was her duty to use her knowledge and skills to bring easy to understand nutrition messaging, education, and resources to the masses – and thus a dream was born.
“Knowing how to communicate the right message to your audience — one that not only resonates with their taste, culture, and preferences but also aligns with the current body of nutrition science — is truly an art.”
– Jo Mandelson, Founder
