Course Description: Ever been told a particular nutrient was important, but had no idea where to find it....other than in the vitamin section at the grocery store? Or maybe you’ve looked at a multivitamin and thought, “But can’t I just get these things from the food I eat?” In this wellness workshop, we’ll discuss some key vitamins and minerals for optimal health, and where we can find them in real, whole foods. Let the Nutrient Scavenger Hunt begin!

Remember that if you suspect that you may have a nutrient deficiency, you should *always* check in with a medical professional to ensure you receive the proper testing, care, and care plan to address it.
