Cooking to Combat COVID-19

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, studies and data have shown individuals with underlying chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, or obesity are at greater risk of developing severe infection. This class will illuminate how a diet rich in low-fat plant-based foods counters chronic conditions and supports a healthy immune system, and thereby reduces the likelihood of severe COVID-19 and hospitalization. Participants will leave with knowledge and skills to boost immunity long after the pandemic. Each class features a cooking demonstration, along with handouts of easy and affordable recipes participants can prepare at home.
