Nutrition Essentials

Based on the Physicians Committee’s 21-Day Vegan Kickstart book, this four-class series promotes a low-fat plant-based diet for preventing some of the most common chronic diseases. Grounded in evidence-based science, this series 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, an easy-to-follow fiber-tracker, and more.
