Snackluck and Talk

Join guest speaker Brigitte Gemme. If you think LDL cholesterol isn't a concern for vegans, think again! In this presentation, Brigitte Gemme, Certified Lifestyle Medicine and habit coach, will share her story of LDL reduction, demonstrate how we can calculate our risk of cardiac event, and show how to make a wholesome breakfast that packs all the LDL-reducing foods! Bonus: you'll even learn how to make your own soy milk and taste some antioxidant-packed ingredients like amla powder and barberries.

You must be registered to attend. The event will be held at Vancouver Co-housing, an intentional co-housing community. As usual, we request a $2 donation for Vancouver Cohousing. Also please bring a vegan snack but be sure it includes NO PEANUTS. (Cohousing has at someone with an anaphylactic reaction to peanuts.)

What's a snackluck? It's a low-stress potluck where each person brings a snack to share. Could be cookies, fresh fruit, veggies and dip, whatever you want. Just please make sure your snack contains no animal products--that means no meat, dairy, whey, gelatin, eggs, and seafood--so that everyone can partake.

Take note: While we're big fans of the plant-based diet, everyone who has registered is welcome, from omnivore to vegan (no pets please).

Parking is free, but as there is construction next door, you may need to park around the corner.
