Streamline your cooking to minimize kitchen time while maximizing nutrition with practical tips for healthier eating on the run and when dining out. 3 part series, please click title for details.

Whether it’s for weight loss, minimizing risks or controlling symptoms of common chronic diseases (diabetes, heart conditions, arthritis and Alzheimer’s, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol), plant-based nutrition is successful on all fronts, with a preponderance of evidence demonstrating benefits for you and your family. This program will free you from counting calories, weighing foods, and measuring for portion control. 

Join Joan Davis and Karen Bender, Health Educators and board members of Plant-based Nutrition Movement, in this 3 part series:

1. Why whole food plant-based makes sense for health & weight Loss.
2. Get enough to eat & get the right nutrients from foods that taste good.
3. Transition tips for a whole food plant-based lifestyle.
