Topics such as:

What is touching your food during the cooking process and is that surface adding toxins to your body, changing the chemistry of your food, and/or robbing you of vitamins and nutrients? We will discuss all types of cookware. Please bring 1-2 of your favorite pots/pans from home! Someone please bring an Insta-Pot. Let’s test them!
*Power Foods: What are they? How can we use food-as-medicine to trap, tame and burn calories for easy weight loss, and maximum nutrition? In his new book, “The Power Foods Diet”, leading nutrition researcher and author Dr. Neal Barnard, MD reveals three breakthroughs that are supported by research, revealing that certain foods: #1. Can reduce the appetite #2. Trap calories so they are flushed away and cannot be absorbed, and #3. Increase the body’s ability to burn calories for about three hours after each meal. Sample some great recipes containing power foods.
*The Power of Food Seminar: WHAT’S ON YOUR PLATE? Our collective society is OVER-FED but UNDER-NOURISHED. We get enough calories but not enough nutrition. Learn what the human body needs to sustain itself and what a healing food plate should look like. Learn the power of colorful foods, the “Nutrition Rainbow” and the recommended food plate.
