Whether you're just beginning to think about reducing your dependency on animal-products or you've been a complete vegetarian for years, our meetings are designed to be informative, fun and supportive. 

Potluck programs are free to EarthSave members/$5.00 for non-members/children under 12 free.

Everyone should bring a vegan covered dish (*no animal products including fish, dairy, eggs or honey) which serves about eight, and your own plate & utensils. There is a $1.00 eco-fee for us to provide plate/utensils.

Part 2, Healing Cancer: cancer can be successfully healed with dietary treatments and natural supplementation; common misconceptions about cancer; diets designed to fight cancer are more successful than conventional treatments; startling cancer research findings and interviews with people who have reversed cancers using diet; why attitude is important in reversing not only cancer, but any disease.

Vegan* POTLUCK Dinner South

Saturday, May 30, 6:15 pm
Fellowship Hall at 3010 DeSoto Blvd. Coral Gables

Topic : "Health and Treatment"  

The business of clinical medicine is based on the differential diagnosis. Dentistry is but one of over 250 medical specialties. Each treats the symptoms of toxicity and uncontrolled inflammation in its own narrow area of expertise. Key systems such as the intestinal flora, and processes such as inflammatory response are often overlooked.

DIRECTIONS:
Coral Gables Congregational Church is located at 3010 DeSoto Blvd., directly across from the Biltmore Hotel. From the north, travel south on I-95 and US1, or the Palmetto Expressway to Bird Road (SW 40 St). From I-95 / US1 travel west to Red Road, or for those on the Palmetto, travel two miles east, until you reach the stoplight at Red Road (57 Ave). Head north on Red Road for approximately 3/4 mile until you reach the next traffic signal (Seville). Turn right, and traveling east on Seville, stay on the road as it bends to the right. Turn left one block before you reach the Biltmore Hotel, and beware of wedding traffic!

 

*If you're not sure what to bring to an EarthSave potluck, may we suggest a simple green salad, a fresh fruit salad, lightly steamed vegetable, quinoa or brown rice? And remember, you don't have to be vegetarian to attend! We hold vegan potlucks so that everyone can enjoy tasting a wide range of dishes.
