The Power of Food for HEALTHY WEIGHT MANAGEMENT - 5-PART COOKING CLASS SERIES
Based on the Physicians Committee’s successful 21-Day Vegan Kickstart book, this 5-class series guides participants on a journey toward healthy weight loss, healthy weight maintenance, and an overall healthful and sustainable diet. For some participants, this may be the first time that food choice is prioritized over restricting food amounts as a guiding principle to support long-term health. This is a lifesaving learning experience bolstered by delicious plant-based recipes that help to lower cholesterol, control diabetes, lower blood pressure, and even boost energy and mood. Each class features a cooking demonstration, along with handouts of easy and affordable recipes participants can prepare at home.
This series will be kicking-off on 5 consecutive Tuesdays in the new year.
