Let food be your medicine

Sugarleaf…Foods That Nourish and Healthy Choices in the MEDICard Lifestyle Center in Makati are delighted to welcome back raw food chef and health advocate Aileen de Guzman for another exciting and informative five-part themed raw food workshop series.

 

Dubbed Let Food Be Your Medicine, all four-hour Saturday afternoon classes take inspiration from Hippocrates’ famous dictum "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food." The founder of Western medicine also championed treating the body as a whole and not just its parts and as recommended consuming herbal medicines regularly as food.

 

Aileen, who pioneered Sugarleaf’s raw food workshops shares “I am honored to share once again my experience and updated knowledge about raw foodism. Eating a healthy well-balanced diet should provide you with all the nutrients the body needs. Unfortunately, the soil where our produce grows as well many processed foods are contaminated with chemicals and/or lack vital nutrients. The solution? Go raw! With a well planned lifestyle filled with delicious raw food, macro- and micronutrients like protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals are complete eliminating the need for supplements.” 

 

Join each or all of these classes – the information provided in each class stand alone, are cumulative and complement all other raw food workshops held in Sugarleaf with Aileen and other raw chefs.
