We Meet. We Cook. We Eat. We Learn.

We all know someone we care about, or perhaps it’s you, who is suffering from a condition that can be managed or improved by eating healthy food. You don’t have to go it alone; we support you on your journey to finding your way to better health.

The programs provided by Eating For Your Health plays an important role in addressing a national health crisis where significant numbers of people are affected by Diabetes, Autoimmune and Inflammatory Diseases, Cognitive Decline and concerns with Brain Health. Over 30 million people have diabetes and over 84 million people have pre-diabetes. Many more are undiagnosed.

We know that change can be difficult so we take a practical approach — cooking and guiding people in the kitchen to learn how easy it can be to prepare whole, delicious, healthy food.
