Topic: The Many Faces of Fat
Fat has been a macronutrient surrounded by controversy. Some say minimize it at all cost, some say a high fat diet – aka a ketogenic diet – is the best solution for weight loss and diabetes. How do we sort through the scientific studies to find a balanced approach that will promote health to our bodies and bring glory to God?

Making Peace with Carbohydrates
Join us for the 2nd online meeting of The Joy of Eating Club! Carbohydrates are largely misunderstood and become the target of numerous fad diet plans. In this session we will consider what our body does with carbs, which ones have health benefits, and how to identify the good, bad, and ugly. We’ll also work on SMART goals to apply the principles we learn.
Enjoy practical culinary tips and an exciting cooking demo featuring a delicious and nutritious recipe to inspire you in this journey.
