July 6th – Green Drinks For McHenry County

On the first Wednesday of each month, environmentally-minded people gather upstairs at Duke's Alehouse & Kitchen to network and talk about “greening” the future. Everyone is welcome to attend the McHenry County Green Drinks on July 6, 2011, from 5 pm until 7 pm,

110 N Main Street

in Crystal Lake.

July’s topic is “Toxins in food: Greening up your diet”, presented by Denise Gaskell, owner of Gaskell Healthy Solutions, who is committed to helping people achieve optimal wellness. 

“Did you know there may be cancer-causing chemicals in your food, your cleaning supplies, or the personal products you put on your skin?  Are you familiar with the "Red Light" additives that may be lurking in your diet?  Can you guess how much sugar the average American in consuming? 

With Heart Disease the #1 Killer, and Cancer and Diabetes on the rise, it is important we understand our diet and how to avoid these often deadly concerns.  Most of us know we could benefit from eating more fruits and vegetables, but do you know what foods and ingredients you should absolutely avoid?

Join us to learn what food additives, inferior ingredients, and toxins you can simply remove and green up your diet for a healthier you and healthier planet!”

 Additional parking is available at the train station.
