Are you interested in eating healthier but don't know where to start? Then consider joining us for our Med Instead of Meds nutrition class! The Med Instead of Meds program teaches participants how to eat like those who live in the Mediterranean region. This style of eating has been shown to promote health and decrease the risk of many chronic diseases, including diabetes and heart disease.

This six-week series is perfect for anyone looking to improve their eating habits and learn more about healthy eating. Topics covered will include food demonstrations, tastings, tips, and lessons on how to eat the Mediterranean way.

This class will be held at the UF/IFAS Extension office in Cocoa, FL, every Thursday. Advance registration is required. Cash or check is also accepted before the first day of the first class.

Dates for the class: 8/13, 8/20, 8/27, 9/3, 9/10, 9/17, 2 pm or 6 pm.

If the class is full, please register for our waitlist. Each entry on the waitlist equals one ticket.
