| Portland Potluck (Westside) & Janice Stanger Presentation |
| February 19 (5:00 - 8:00 PM) |
Northwest VEG is pleased to have Janice Stanger, Ph.D., nutrition expert, author of The Perfect Formula Diet, educator, and speaker present. Her book's mission is to help people, animals, and the planet through providing solid, yet little-known, information on whole foods, plant-based diets. She is in her sixteenth year of critically analyzing scientific studies on nutrition, weight loss, and health. Janice will present "Ten Dangerous Nutrition Myths." This no-myth-left-untouched presentation will transform your understanding of six whole foods you should eat and the processed foods, animal foods, and supplements you should never consume.
Come to the potluck at 5, the presentation at 6:30, or both. The potluck and presentation will be at the West Hills Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 8470 SW Oleson Rd., Portland.
Please bring a plant-based (no animal products, including honey) main dish, salad, or dessert; a card listing its ingredients; and plates and utensils for your use. Need plant-based ideas?

Northwest VEG potlucks are alcohol-free events. For more information, call 503-746-8344 or email info@nwveg.org.
A donation of $2–5 per person is suggested to help cover the cost of the room rental.
