Nutrition Essentials

Based on the Physicians Committee’s 21-Day Vegan Kickstart book, this class promotes a low-fat plant-based diet for the prevention of some of the most common chronic diseases. Grounded in evidence-based science, this class empowers participants by revealing the "whys" and "hows" of healthy eating, along with the knowledge and skills needed for effective, long-term weight loss and maintenance to support overall health.

Participants receive helpful, easy-to-follow handouts and guides designed to reinforce learning and support lasting dietary change, including healthy meal ideas, weekly menu planning guides, suggested plant-based recipe substitutions, foods to avoid and enjoy for better blood sugar control, and more.
