Food for Life: Diabetes-Not Necessarily A Sugar Problem ONLINE

$14.00

Tuesday, February 21st from 6:30-8:30pm on ZOOM

“Low carb, low sugar, no sugar” has been the common wisdom to prevent or manage diabetes, however the latest evidenced based medical literature is showcasing a much more intricate interaction between what we eat and how our body functions with metabolic health at the core of our overall health. It is fascinating what our liver and kidneys do and how they react to each meal of the day according to our meal choices. It is empowering what we can do in our daily life that can make a life-changing difference between forever medicine with side effects, and health and vitality side effect free. In our class we’ll be treated to a short lecture by Dr. Neal Barnard from George Washington University, we’ll discuss and reflect together, and then enjoy a cooking demonstration of 3 practical recipes for getting started. You will receive recipes, PCRM literature on the topic and other helpful documents to keep. As a reminder, the zoom link will be emailed to you the day before class.

~Looking forward to learning, wondering, laughing and becoming empowered together on Tuesday, February 21st from 6:30-8:30pm~
