Nourish to Flourish Pantry Makeover
Part Workshop, Part Book Club!
Are you tired of feeling confused and overwhelmed when you try to read food labels? Do you want to make healthier choices for yourself and your family but don’t know where to start? In this 4-week nutrition class you will learn how to go beyond the health claims made on packaging and understand what is really in your food – and how to make healthier choices!
Much of the food on the shelves at the grocery store is full of added sugars, additives, and chemicals that do not support our health. I like to call these foods “Frankenfoods” because they are anything but “real” food.
While these foods may taste good, they are nutrient poor and have deleterious effects on our physical and mental health and wellbeing. Frequently consuming these ingredients can lead to issues such as blood sugar imbalances and insulin resistance, fatigue, allergies, tummy troubles, brain fog, headaches etc. etc..
You will learn what it is best to stay away from or limit, and more importantly what swaps to make that will support the health of you and your family.
Over the course of these 4 sessions you will be able to restock your pantry, fridge and freezer with health promoting foods that fit any budget!
This workshop is part “book club” and you will receive your own personal copy of the best selling book “The Pantry Principle: How to Read the Label and Understand What’s Really in Your Food.” You will receive your book at our first class and each week I will guide you though the information, elaborate, answer your questions, and provide personalized advice.
By the end of the class, you’ll have the knowledge and tools you need to make informed choices about the food you eat and the confidence to make positive changes for your health. You will become a savvy shopper who knows how spend wisely at the grocery store and how to stock your pantry, fridge, and freezer with health promoting foods.
What is included:
* One copy of “The Pantry Principle: How to Read the Label and Understand What’s Really in Your Food.” ($18 value) – this is yours to keep as a reference tool!
* Four (4) 60 minute long workshop sessions lead by Amanda Watson, Board Certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant®
* E-mail support between sessions as you go through and transform your pantry and transform your health!
