Learn about the power of food for cancer prevention and survival. Studies have shown that a diet built from plant foods offers the most cancer-fighting protection of any diet plan. Reviews by the American Institute for Cancer Research showed that as much as 40% of cancer risk may be related to diet. This 4-class series will offer a unique opportunity to acquire knowledge about the link between diet and cancer, experience the benefits of plant-based nutrition, and learn the practical cooking skills needed to help you on your journey to better health. Class topics include Introduction to How Foods Fight Cancer, Fueling Up on Low-Fat, High-Fiber Foods, Discovering Dairy and Meat Alternatives, Cancer-Fighting Compounds and Immune Boosting Foods, and Maintaining a Healthy Weight. Each class format includes welcome & overview, a video lesson, class discussion, cooking demonstration, and Q&A. The Food for Life program is a collaborative effort of physicians, researchers, and nutritionists who have joined together to educate the public about the benefits of a healthful diet for improved health and disease prevention. Based in Washington, D.C., Food for Life is a program of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. This virtual class is for ages 18+.
