Gluten Free Workshop

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 08:00:00 CST

Saturday November 28th

10 am-noon | Free

Thinking of Trying to Live Without Wheat? Do you get fatigued after eating breads? Are you often bloated and have uncomfortable digestion? Achy? Depressed? Pain after eating?

If you think you might be sensitive to wheat or gluten, a food elimination diet can be helpful in both identifying food intolerances and in giving the gut a rest so that it can heal and restore acid/base balance. It can be challenging to know where to start because gluten and wheat is found everywhere.

The first part of this workshop will be in the Stanley Court Room at WECC, and the second part will involve an aisle by aisle nutritional tour of Robson Capers Whole Foods Markets.

These seminars are offered free of charge, however space is limited and preregistration is required through zachery.longboy@wholefoods.com or victoria@springwellnutrition.com
