Nutrition Consultations

When you have cancer, so many questions come up about what to eat, not just to maintain health but when you don’t feel like eating at all due to side effects of treatment. Get expert nutritional support from our staff dietitian, who is board-certified in oncology.

To learn more and sign up, call us at (847) 509-9595.

Cooking Classes

Sign up for our free cooking classes! Get expert tips and tricks on topics including how to prepare nourishing meals when you’re tired from treatment or caregiving, healthy holiday treats, and more. Most of our classes are in-person at our Northbrook location and many offer demonstrations rather than hands-on meal preparation.
