Does a healthy smoothie have to be green and taste gross? Is there a healthier alternative to Halloween candy? What kind of effect does sugar even have on the body?
Here’s your chance to find out.
The Chattery is teaming up with local juice bar Southern Sqweeze to host a series of classes focused on healthy eating. The classes, taught by Southern owner Kelsey Vasileff, will cover Juicing and Smoothies 101 on Oct. 14; Raw Foods: Healthy Sweets and Treats on Oct. 23; and a Sugar Blues Workshop on Nov. 11.
“I hope, especially with the Sugar Blues Workshop, that it brings a deeper understanding of what food can do to your body and why you should avoid things, not only because of weight but because it’s better for your organs, for your heart, for your brain,” said The Chattery co-founder Jennifer Holder. “We only have one chance to get it right, so we should really learn from people to understand how to get it right.”
The Chattery is a new business that started up last March and works with locals to educate the community on various topics.
