Healthy cooking lessons

Dietitians work within the Community to educate on practical steps in how to produce healthy and nutritious meals whilst delivering the key messages on oil, salt and sugar.

Cooking classes in a Gurdwara and Low fat, low sugar sweets

Traditionally, Asians exchange sweets, which are very high in sugar and calories, during festive celebrations. Through Apnee Sehat and under the guidance of the Dietitians, South Asian's learn how to make healthier alternatives which still taste good.

Shopping tours

Shopping trip

Dietitian led healthy shopping coach tours consist of small groups being guided around large supermarkets. They're a fantastic way of empowering people with knowledge and skills to be able to make informed choices when shopping for food, e.g. reading labels and watching out for confusing nutritional messages.
