What is inflammation, really?

7:00 pm - 8:00 pm | Online zoom meeting
DONATION

Come for a deeper look that goes beyond the buzzwords and examines what inflammation really is, what it means for your health, and what to do about it. This information is particularly pertinent for anyone struggling with heart disease, asthma, allergies, autoimmune disease, arthritis or cancer.

What we’ll cover:

  • The origins of inflammation in the body
  • When is it good and when is it bad?
  • How does it cause or exacerbate chronic diseases?
  • The gut-inflammation connection
  • How to keep inflammation in check with diet, lifestyle and herbs
  • Get your questions answered by a doctor trained in both conventional and holistic medicine.

About Our Classes

Our Co-op Community Classes program has a long and exciting history; we've had a plethora of learning partners over the years, the Free School, GRUB, the Fertile Ground, and more. Many of our classes focus on basic kitchen skills, often paired with a solid education in a particular kind of food: hearty greens, fermented foods, international delicacies, pies, etc. We also feature classes on gardening, personal health, sustainable living, and social justice. Classes are geared towards beginners, with no assumption of prior knowledge, often packed with specific projects appealing to those with more experience.

At the heart of all of our programming is the spirit of generosity. Our classes are led by Olympia Food Co-op working members, staff and community members who want to share their excitement and knowledge with you.  Consider sharing your expertise with your community through a Co-op Community Class.  Our classrooms are a place to experiment, to explore, and to try something new in a supportive environment. They are a great place to network and meet others in your community who share your interests.
