Event Description

This month we'll be seeing the documentary, The C Word, with director Meghan L. O’Hara (Sicko), and narrated by Morgan Freeman.

"Cancer is no laughing matter – but the archaic way we are beating it, is! With a dose of good humor, heart, and a touch of rock-n’-roll beat, THE C WORD reveals the forces at play keeping us sick and dares to ask: if up to 70% of cancer deaths are preventable… what are we waiting for? "

"The C Word is a full out attack on cancer, done with smarts and humor." Micheal Moore

The kitchen includes plates and utensils.

Guidelines:

#1 Don't sweat it--this is supposed to be fun. Be open to trying something new! While Dr. Fuhrman's plan does allow for a reduced amount of animal products, for the potlucks I think it's best to make it vegan, as those who are working with health challenges will usually be on a vegan version of the plan. Please include an ingredient card with the dish you bring.

This is an opportunity to practice with and make recipes you might not ordinarily. Almost all of Dr. Fuhrman's books have recipes. This also looks like a great resource for recipes, https://hellonutritarian.com.
The Member Center (https://www.drfuhrman.com/membership) is an awesome resource for cooking, which includes recipes from his books and various conferences that have ratings and comments from other members who have prepared the dishes, plus much more.

Please go ahead and RSVP if you think you may attend. It helps me in planning and you can always change your RSVP later if need be.
