Join us this summer to learn how food choices can prevent, manage, and reverse diabetes. We now know that the root of diabetes is lifestyle related, and we can make changes to live a longer, healthier life. In this class series, we’ll translate scientific findings into simple, practical steps you can take in your kitchen and at the grocery store. The benefits reaped from a diet change can help anyone with a diagnosis of diabetes, prediabetes, a family history or risk factors for developing diabetes, and their adult family members. If you’re ready for a healthy change, this class is for you!

Each class will include group discussion, engaging video lectures, quizzes, a cooking demonstration of 3 plant-based recipes as well as resources to keep you motivated at home.
