EMBRACE FOOD AS MEDICINE
Are your new year’s resolutions falling by the wayside? This weekend retreat might just be the reboot you need! Take charge of your health with your fork, rather than a pill, with the transformative power of delicious plant-based nutrition.
This weekend will be led by Plant Docs founder, Sandra Musial MD, a lifestyle medicine physician, and Laura Klein, a culinary medicine chef who will motivate and inspire you to embrace food as medicine. The numerous benefits this approach to eating offers include reducing inflammation, improving type-2 diabetes and heart disease, lowering bad cholesterol and A1c, and losing weight. You'll be amazed at how great you'll feel!
In this retreat, you will experience:
- Practical tips on plant-based nutrition to help prevent, improve, and reverse chronic disease
- Demonstrations and samplings of easy-to-follow, delicious, plant-centered recipes
- Workshops on nutrition label reading, menu planning, and smart shopping
- Demystifying leafy greens, whole grains, and healthy fats
- Learning about your gut microbiome and how to boost your metabolism
- Tips for success when dining out and at dinner parties
- Coaching on creating lasting healthy habits
You'll leave with new culinary skills, tasty recipes, and nutrition tools to continue your success when you return home.
Note: It’s recommended that you obtain lab work (cost not included but usually covered by insurance) before and one month after the weekend so you can see the impact that healthy nutrition can have on your health. Please contact Dr. Musial at sandy@plantdocs.com if you are interested in doing the lab work. Included in the tuition is a virtual follow-up class one month later. It will be held on March 8, 2026 from 5:00–6:30 pm EST to celebrate successes, discuss any challenges, and cook a delicious dinner together.
