This #plantbased holiday cooking demo featuring local chefs looks great! This Sunday at 4 PT. Tickets free/donation.

With Martin Yan that was fun!

I had a smashing time leading a cooking workshop for the UCSF School of Medicine Lifestyle Medicine Interest Group. It is such a pleasure to teach future doctors who already understand the importance of prevention and the role of food in health. It’s great to know there are going to be some more fabulous doctors in the pipeline. Thanks for having me! #foodasmedicine #culinarymedicine #meded

What do we talk about when we talk about #foodasmedicine? "Understanding science and de-stigmatizing size go hand in hand; both allow us to understand that health and thinness are not synonymous, that what matters is how a person feels in their body that is being provided with the nutrients it needs and the satisfaction it desires. This could help more people be able to experience more pleasure in their foodand isn’t that our whole deal?" https://aliciakennedy.substack.com/p/on-health
