CNM LIVE! - "Nutrition Essentials for the Job Seeker" with John Foster

"Nutrition Essentials for the Job Seeker"

Based on the Physicians Committee’s 21-Day Kickstart book, this class promotes a low-fat plant-based diet for preventing some of the most common chronic diseases. Grounded in evidence-based science, this class will empower participants by revealing the whys and hows—the knowledge and skills—for effective and long-term weight loss and maintenance in support of overall health. Participants receive helpful, easy-to-follow handouts and guides to cement learning and ease them into implementation of new dietary changes, including healthy menu ideas, weekly menu planning guides, suggested plant-based recipe substitutions and additional resources.
