DIY Digestive Bitters Workshop

People's Food Co-op

For various factors, including heavier meals & decreased physical activity, our digestion in winter months slows down. A traditional way to keep digestion functioning is with the aid of bitter herb tonics, known as Bitters. The bitter flavor stimulates digestion, allowing the body to assimilate nutrients from food more fully, reducing gas & bloating, supporting beneficial gut flora, and gently stimulating bowel movement. 
Side benefits of consuming bitter elixirs include common skin complaint (acne, dryness, dermatitis, eczema, etc) resolution, decrease in sugar cravings, and relaxation during meals. In this class we will discuss digestion holistically, taste various bitter elixirs for inspiration, and blend our own custom Bitter blends to use at home. 
We are committed to making our classes accessible to folks of all income levels and financial situations while ensuring that our instructors are compensated fairly for their time, effort, expertise, and materials. If this class is interesting or useful to you but you can't swing the fee, please be in touch with us and we'll work something out. You can email communityroom@peoples.coop for scholarship inquiries.
The Community Room is located on the 2nd floor up a flight of stairs. It is also accessible by elevator lift--just let a cashier know you need to use it and they will help you!
