Educational Talks at In the Kitchen: Victoria LaFont – proponent of whole, properly prepared, nutrient dense foods

6-8pm

$10

Have a major sweet tooth?  Come and enjoy some satisfying nutritional information from our local Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Victoria LaFont.  Learn about proper blood sugar regulation, some tell tale signs of dysfunction, and how to safely savor sweet, nourishing foods.

After growing up on a rural Kentucky diet of Crisco and white flour, Victoria LaFont ventured out to see the world and find some real answers regarding her poor health. Ten years ago she hitchhiked to her salvation when she stumbled upon a community focused on the principles of healing through whole foods, clean water, and plenty of Hawai’ian sunshine. Eventually the Weston A. Price Foundation was cemented as the true love of her heart, and she began to explore the mysteries of biochemistry and the technical and spiritual wonders of the human body. She holds degrees in applied anthropology, professional writing, music, and most recently nutritional therapy. She lives and practices in Grass Valley, CA, and moonlights in Kentucky when the weather is good.
