How Foods Fight Diabetes- The road to diabetes does not have to be a one-way street. There is reason for hope! People who eat plant-based meals are less likely to ever develop diabetes, and for those who have diabetes, plant-based meals can help to improve blood sugar levels and prevent complications.

In this 90 minute class attendees will learn the benefits of a whole food plant based lifestyle and its surprising effect on our health and longevity. Each class includes * NEW RECIPES* live cooking demonstrations with Susannah's in depth knowledge on plant-based nutrition, educating, and inspiring how to prevent and reverse chronic diseases along with useful handouts, recipes, and Q & A, all in a supportive online group setting.

About the organizer

Healthy eating has always been a passion for Susannah. While raising her three sons she made sure that they always had an abundance of fruits and vegetables.
 
After watching family members become ill with heart disease, Susannah's husband, sons, and she adopted a plant-based lifestyle. As a life-long learner and teacher, it was a natural transition for Susannah to become a Food for Life instructor.
 
Susannah has completed the certificate in Plant Based Nutrition from the T. Collin Campbell Foundation through eCornell. She is also a graduate of the Forks over Knives Rouxbe Cooking Class. 

 

Susannah wants to make a difference in the lives of children and adults through a plant-based lifestyle.
