Fiber: Are You Getting Enough?
Join us for our July Food Is Medicine Workshop!
DC Greens’ Food Is Medicine workshop series continues with this fun and hands-on class, “Fiber: Are You Getting Enough?” In this class, participants will learn why fiber matters, including how it can help lower LDL cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure, and why it’s a nutrient many Americans don’t get enough of.
Participants will learn about soluble and insoluble fiber through simple examples and a hands-on fiber guessing game using common foods. The class also includes a taste test of a Black Eyed Pea and Collard Green Salad, highlighting affordable, fiber-rich ingredients. Through group discussion and reflection, participants will leave with practical, realistic ways to add more fiber into their daily routines.
This class is free and open to participants 18+.
