Suburban Chicago Vegetarian Meetup

Vegan Nutrition Class

April 28, 2012 · 6:00 PM
Whole Foods Market

Have you ever been asked "Where do you get your protein?" Well, the Wellness Club at Whole Foods Market is here to help! After you take this class you will know scientific facts for yourself, and will be very well equipped to answer this question when you are asked by others.

It seems like everyone has an opinion about protein... This class was created by Medical Doctors and a Registered Dietician to separate the facts from amazing amount of fiction that's out there. Learn exactly what proteins are, why are they important, learn how much protein you need, and finally, learn where you get it from. This class will teach you about the benefits to plant-based proteins and the massive health concerns associated with over-consumption of proteins from animal products.

To make the event more fun the Wellness Club will provide some free vegan snacks!

The cost of the class is $15 paid on-line with your RSVP or $20 by the door. 100% of the proceeds from this class will go to support the very first Chicago Veggie Pride Parade (www.veggiepride.com/chicago). This is a great opportunity to enjoy an interesting lecture and to support a great cause at the same time. We are looking forward to seeing you at the event!
