FFL Kickstart: Breaking Food Seduction

Description

Are you curious to learn how nutrition and our diet are involved in maintaining and restoring health? Want to learn more about a plant-based diet, but not sure how to start? Then the Food for Life Kickstart Your Health series is for you! Breaking the Food Seduction is the fourth class in the Kickstart Your Health 7-week series. This class will discuss why certain foods are so difficult to give up (cheese anyone?) and what we can do to break these addictions. You'll get information on how foods like dairy, meat, and sweets affect our brain and how we can avoid the temptation, along with a demo of a few easy and inexpensive recipes. The Food For Life Kickstart Your Health series introduces participants to a journey toward healthy weight loss, healthy weight maintenance, and an overall healthful and sustainable diet. In this series, we will discuss how incorporating more plants into your diet can not only lead to maintaining a healthy weight without restriction, but can help to lower cholesterol, control diabetes, lower blood pressure, and even boost energy and mood. We will also have virtual cooking demonstrations of some easy plant-based recipes in each class, and you're welcome to cook along at home! Note: If you register for all 7 classes in the series together, you get a $20 discount!
