Carlisle, Pennsylvania-based The Giant Co. will be streaming nutrition classes presented by a team of dietitians to help viewers bring more balance in January and show their heart some extra love in February. All free nutrition classes are offered live through Zoom.
“Over the past year, thousands of aspiring chefs of all ages participated in our virtual nutrition classes, and we are excited to bring them back and better than ever for 2022,” said Kilene Knitter, dietitian with The Giant Co.
“While eating healthier often ranks among the top New Year’s resolutions, healthy eating is a lifestyle and there are plenty of simple ways you can incorporate more nutritious foods and habits into your family’s routine. Let us show you how in our latest lineup of free, virtual nutrition classes,” she said.
Upcoming classes:
