Healthy Eating

Helping You Eat for a Healthier Life

You know the saying, “you are what you eat!” It may sound silly, but what you eat can have a big impact on your health.

ADRC understands this and we know it can be difficult if you are:

Making smaller portions for just you
On a limited food budget
Diabetic
Homebound or have difficulties cooking
Tired of the same old thing and need some inspiration

If you can relate to any of these, ADRC offers a number of presentations put together by dietetic (nutrition) professionals that contain practical information and make it fun to learn! Topics include, but are not limited to:

Cooking for One or Two
Organic vs. Non-Organic
Home Food Safety
Eating Healthy for Less

ADRC programs are available at different locations in Brown County throughout the year, check back on the ADRC Website or ADRC Magazine for upcoming dates!
