Online Cooking and Nutrition Series: The Power of Food for Cancer Prevention and Survival
Saturday mornings Oct. 10, 17, 24, 31
Certain diet patterns seem to have a major effect in helping people diagnosed with cancer to live longer, healthier lives. The National Cancer Institute research shows that as much as 50 percent of cancer risk may be related to diet. In this class, you will learn about the right food choices that can help reduce the risk of developing cancer as well as overcome the disease after it has been diagnosed.
This interactive series of 4 classes includes the science, delicious, easy-to-prepare recipes, cooking demonstrations and ongoing support in a private Facebook group. Classes are from 11:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. on Saturday mornings: Oct. 10, 17, 24 & 31. Tickets are transferable but not refundable. The Food for Life program is a community-based nutrition education program of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM). PCRM is a nonprofit organization advancing preventive medicine, primarily good nutrition, and supports higher standards in research.
