Foods for a Healthy Heart
Thursday, February 15, 2024 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM

 

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. and around the world and yet it's largely preventable. Eating habits and other lifestyle factors play a key role in determining the risk of heart disease. Join this free Food for Life class and learn how to love your heart! 

 

Research shows a plant-based diet doesn’t just prevent heart disease, but it can manage and sometimes even reverse it. 

Pioneering studies by Dean Ornish, MD, Caldwell Esselstyn Jr., MD, and others have shown that a low-fat, plant-based diet, combined with regular exercise and a healthy overall lifestyle, can prevent, delay, and even reverse heart disease and other cardiovascular events.

 

In this online class, learn about the power of plants and how they can improve risk factors for heart disease such as

  • High Blood Pressure
  • High Cholesterol
  • Atherosclerosis
  • Inflammation

     

This two-hour class features a video, a discussion, and the opportunity to cook along and learn how to make several delicious heart-healthy dishes.

 

And since February is also the month when we show love to others, invite someone you love who needs to hear this important information!
