Eatwell Exchange will be Hosting “Heritage to Health” which is a 12-week culturally relevant nutrition education and culinary program designed for underserved communities of color starting January 30th.  By embracing African American culinary traditions, we show participants how their cultural dishes can be modified to promote health and prevent chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Through engaging, hands-on cooking classes that use culturally significant ingredients and recipes, this program addresses healthy lifestyles without requiring participants to sacrifice their cultural identity. Please share with your colleagues or any organization that you think can use it . Www.eatwellexchange.org/prediabetes
