The Southern Food and Beverage Museum (SOFAB), Eat Fit NOLA and the University of Queensland Ochsner Clinical School have formed a partnership to educate the public on how to address health maladies through culinary medicine and dietary practices. A team of third and fourth year medical students, a chef and a nutritionist from Eat Fit NOLA will offer health and culinary insights in a program filled with information on how to eat for preventative health. Without iron your body cannot access all that oxygen you’re breathing in, yet 12% of the world’s population is estimated to be affected by iron deficiency. Learn how your body uses, loses and stores iron and how to maximize the iron in a healthy diet. We’ll explore delicious ways to add iron to your regular cooking rotation with the help of Chef Hosie Bourgeois of Beau Chene Country Club in Mandeville.
