Perhaps you have thought about eating a diet that does not include any animal products but were not sure how to do this and get the nutrients you need to be healthy. Research studies have shown that people who eat only a plant-based diet are at lower risk for heart disease, some cancers, and other health problems such as obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure. This class is taught by a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist. The class will educate and empower you on ways to:

• Plan a nutritionally balanced plant-based diet that taste delicious
• Increase fruit and vegetable intake
• Improve your blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol
• Reduce your risk for developing chronic conditions
• Lose weight, if desired

There are no easy or instant cures for chronic insomnia. Overcoming insomnia involves making changes in your daily behavior. Many people abandon a behavioral
technique after two or three nights if it doesn’t produce an immediate change in their sleep. This course will require time, patience, and persistence. Although the changes resulting from behavioral interventions will take longer than just taking a pill, they will also last longer. These changes are more enduring, more effective, and safer than sleep medications.

Participants will need a referral from their physician and must meet criteria for screening:

• Current or former smoker (quit within last 15 years)
• Between ages 50-80

Lung cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer. More people die from lung cancer each year than from breast, colon, and prostate cancers combined. Detecting lung cancer early can mean easier treatment and a better cure rate. Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer, and even former smokers have elevated risk factors for years after quitting. If you would like to be proactive and get screened, contact your primary care physician to request a referral for lung cancer screening. You will be contacted by the instructor to verify screening criteria and confirm enrollment. Call 404-527-9887 with questions or for additional information.

NOTE: Please note that registration for this class is NOT through the Health Line. Register through a referral from your primary care physician or by calling 404-527-9887.
