HEALTH AND NUTRITION Eat to Live: Recapturing Your Health with Food Sept 26, 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. $20 Despite being a more educated and sophisticated society, we have become, as a population, much less healthy. How has that happened?

The deck is stacked against us with a broken food industry that encourages all the wrong habits and bombards us with misleading and inaccurate advertising. Instead of sustaining our good health, the way we eat has sadly contributed to chronic illness and our declining health. We all think we know what we should be eating - but do we really know and do we do it? You will leave this class with workable solutions for better eating habits to take back control of your health and your family’s health. The time is now! Instructor Daniela Liscio is founder and president of Eat for Sport, LLC. UACCB Main Campus Bldg, 240.
