Nutrition While You Shop

Shopping for a healthier diet can be confusing, even for the most nutritionally-savvy individual.  For a healthy New Year attend a grocery store tour lead by registered dietitian, Gail Posner, R.D., M.S.  Learn to choose wisely from the vast array of foods in the market for optimal energy and health, to lose weight, or control diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. 

Gail’s tours are as interesting as they are informative.  As you walk the aisles, Gail will explain how to determine the nutritional value of thousands of products and ingredients, and teach you how to interpret health claims.  You’ll learn which fish are healthiest, why it’s important to buy organic milk, and why extra-virgin olive oil gives you a better “bang for your nutritional buck” than regular olive oil.  Participants will go home with recipes and handouts that help them solve the inevitable “what’s for dinner?” dilemma.
