CCEFM nutrition educators will present “Cooking with Diabetes,” a two-part nutrition education series Thursday, June 9th and 16th. The classes will run from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Cornell Cooperative Extension office, 50 East Main St. in Canajoharie.
This workshop-style program will provide practical, hands-on learning activities designed to help participants understand how portion size and nutrient content impact overall health.

Topics will include label reading, the importance of physical activity and tips for eating while dining out. An overview of diabetes will cover basic concepts and recommendations. People who have been diagnosed with Diabetes, people who are living with persons with Diabetes and people who are cooking for people with Diabetes are encouraged to register and attend the two-part program.

Thanks to the sponsorship Hero-Beech-Nut this program is free to participants.
