A vegetarian diet is proven to lower your risk of almost all of the common diseases that cause premature death in America – including heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes and high blood pressure. But maybe you don’t want to go total vegetarian (yet)! That’s fine. You can still benefit from some great vegetarian recipes. And we’ll cover other practical things you can do to be more healthy in addition to what you eat.

2026 Positive Choices

This class will review a number of challenging health topics including cancer, dementia, stroke, and depression and the lifestyle interventions that can help treat and in many cases even prevent these conditions.  The emphasis will be particularly on prevention though we will discuss some of the medical treatments for these diseases as well. This class will also be another boost in motivation for those healthy changes you have already started. We pair the medical lectures with spiritual topics from the Bible.  These topics are based on the first six chapters of the Bible’s book of Daniel. These chapters contain captivating stories of Daniel and his three friends and their life in Babylon, stories with lessons that can help us deal with many of the challenges we face every day.  And we believe each of these chapters is of particular importance for the times in which we live.
