    Get the Real Deal on Your Meal!

    Thursday, March 15th, 1:30 p.m. or 6:30 p.m. at the Camrose Public Library

    This class will focus on addressing nutrition myths such as:

    • Avoid carbs if you want to lose weight.
    • The % Daily Value on the Nutrition Facts table is not very useful.
    • It’s too hard to eat all the vegetables and fruit recommended in Canada’s Food Guide.
    • “Multi-grain” is the same as “whole grain.”
    • You’ll gain weight if you follow Canada’s Food Guide – it recommends too much food.
    • Drinking energy drinks is the best way to get energized.
