Join us for an engaging session on the MyPlate guidelines and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGAs) to help you discover a balanced way of eating that works for you. With so much nutrition misinformation out there, we’ll also discuss how to spot trends and fads that may be harmful to your health. To wrap up, we’ll demonstrate a quick and nutritious snack that you can easily make at home!
