It is no secret that proper nourishment can be a powerful aid to the healing process. The Food Therapy certificate program curriculum covers whole-systems biology, core nutritional imbalances, and how to translate a dietary prescription into practical meal planning and preparation. Instruction includes how specific diets and cooking techniques relate to a range of illnesses. Led by Chef Celine Beitchman, MS., ICE’s director of nutrition education, and chefs professionally trained in health-supportive cooking, the course consists of lectures, meal planning, case study discussions and kitchen lab sessions. Each full day consists of a lecture and kitchen lab. Students are expected to attend all lectures, take notes as required and actively participate in class discussions and group projects. Students will work in assigned groups to complete the outlined kitchen lab assignments.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.
