Each class is divided into three parts.  At each meeting, students will engage in: (1) a clear and practical lecture of the foundations of nutrition, based upon the Eating for Health model, (2) a cooking demonstration and food tasting with recipes provided, and (3) a time to discuss personal health issues, apply the information presented and make weekly commitments to eat and live healthier.

By the end of the course students will know how to:

  • Shop for, prepare, and store tasty, easy-to-make, fresh, healthy foods
  • Stock a pantry with whole food staples
  • Create nutritionally sound and delicious main meals and snacks
  • Better manage time and costs associated with eating well every day
  • Improve their selection of vitamin, mineral, and antioxidant-rich beverages
  • Eliminate common allergenic foods that contribute to low energy and weight gain
  • Create meal plans that fit their age, lifestyle, health issues, and commitment
  • Avoid Nutrition Bandits that rob their health

Nutrition Essentials cuts through food and diet ideology, and teaches both the art and science of nutrition in a way that anyone can understand and put into practice. Our goal is to awaken your critical intelligence and provide hands on experimentation in making and enjoying fresh, local, and seasonal food. We want you to experience feeling what it is like to be well nourished. Our certified Nutrition Instructors will offer support on how to manage food addictions, cravings, and lifelong poor eating and health habits. Learning as a group provides wonderful personal support. When someone shares a struggle, all offer encouragement. When someone shares a breakthrough, all are inspired. We hope to demonstrate that, in learning to Eat for Health, you will make measurable changes in your diet, lifestyle, and attitude that will leave a lasting, positive imprint on your health and longevity.

All participants in the program will receive The Nutrition Essentials for Everyone™ Workbook.

Bauman College is an approved provider by the California Board of Registered Nursing, Provider Number 11401.  Completion of this course will provide 20 CEU contact hours.
