And just like that… this year’s #culinarymedicine elective at @kpmedschool is over! The month really whizzed by. I am so fulfilled by the learning, skill development, engagement, and reflections from these soon-to-be doctors. And not to mention, some delicious food at their final/potluck!  I am so proud that they made a very culturally diverse vegetarian menu including orange tofu (a healthier remake of popular fast food), a chickpea curry (beans and greens with turmeric and black pepper IYKYK), mujadara (from a student who until only a few years ago ate mainly chicken nuggets and other “kid food”), a protein pasta with radishes and radish top pesto (to reduce food waste), and palak paneer (to honor the cultural diversity of his hometown). They got the memo! San Francisco Chinatown Week 3 of the @kpmedschool #culinarymedicine elective and I am feeling so proud and fulfilled. In addition to #bean day and #fish day and a #spices workshop in which we made golden milk, these fabulous 4th years made me proud by teaching a class at @hollywoodsunsetfree clinic. They taught knife skills, expert kale massaging by @aylaylay5 and DIY vinaigrette dressing, in addition to the nutrition benefits of a #plantforward diet. With simultaneous translation into Spanish as well. Everyone learned something- to enjoy kale more by massaging it, to save money, improve health and by making your own salad dressings, and the best review— the patient who said “I’d seen these vegetables before but didn’t know how to make them, but now I do and I will”— and took pics on his phone to remember. Mission accomplished! I’ve been working a lot recently and managing some personal stuff. Today I lived the six pillars of #lifestylemedicine in a quick hike just outside the city and it was just #whatthedoctorordered! Week 2 of the @kpmedschool #culinarymedicine elective is a wrap and this group is on 🔥! Week 1 of the Culinary Medicine elective @kpmedschool is a wrap! What a joy to teach this engaged and fun group of med students in their final stretch before becoming doctors! Working alongside my dream team of colleagues as course co-director on creating, continuously improving, and teaching this elective is incredibly fulfilling and meaningful. We cooked almost 40 different plant foods in two days— our microbiomes will be happy. Happy Lunar New Year! 🧧🔥🐴 Dark leafy greens are the way to health— so make them delicious! Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who made #ciahkhl such a success again, from Dr. David Eisenberg who created this life-changing conference more than 20 years ago, program director @rootedfood and my fellow planning committee members and faculty, to the fabulous team @ciaatcopia @ciaindustryleadership and @harvardchansph .
