I've been on a quest lately after being diagnosed as Gluten, Dairy & Egg Intolerant. There are other ones for me but those are the major ones for me to avoid. There has been so much to learn and shopping/eating has become a new way of life for me. I have learned a lot from my Naturopath, Dr. Carly Wendler and I have learned a lot from the great staff at Goodness Me in Waterdown. They have been fantastic with lots of food samples, advice from staff and they always have classes every week to help educate and promote good health in various forms. Tomorrow, May 25th they are have a Health Festival at their Waterdown location. You can sign-up for free classes, try out some new products, score some great deals and win prizes! Plus, they will be grilling on the BBQ from 11:30AM-6PM (including Gluten Free options) so come hungry!
Classes scheduled for Saturday are:
10:00AM - 11:30AM
1:00PM - 2:30PM
4:00PM - 5:30PM
I will there attending Dr. Carly's class "Gluten & Dairy Free Eating Made Simple" On Dr. Carly's Facebook fan page is a great description of her class and what she'll be covering...
"Are you wondering about the boom in gluten and dairy free eating? Why does it seem that everyone is tittering about this shift in what we are feeding our families and ourselves? Everywhere we look these days we are seeing books, programs, and health professionals recommending these changes for specific health issues as well as for general overall well being and preventative health. It is not without great scientific support and research that these recommendations are making their way into everyday language. Societies that have the highest consumption of wheat and dairy also have the highest rates of pediatric type 1 diabetes, eczema, allergies, ear infections, heart disease, celiac disease, auto immune diseases and the list continues! For complete event details please visit www.drcarlywendler.com events or www.goodnessme.ca "
We are so fortunate to have such a great store in Waterdown like Goodness Me. With the increase of people with Celiac and Food Intolerances, it is a valuable resource in our community and I hope you'll check out the Health Festival Saturday.
