This weekend is “Grow Your Food IQ” Weekend at the Museum of Science in Boston.

Foodicine Health will be hosting special sessions to help visitors learn about the importance of healthy eating.

Dr. Jacqueline Wolf from Harvard Medical School, and Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital will provide a behind-the-scenes look at food, nutrition, and wellness.

During this session, Dr. Wolf will explain what happens to the food we eat and how healthy foods keep us strong and energized.

She’ll also help attendees understand some health conditions, such as food allergies or celiac disease, that required special dietary accommodations- and, how to enjoy healthful eating!

Foodicine Health is also hosting an informative “Ask the Dietitian” session where you can meet dietitians Lindsay Keach Bronstein, MS, RD, LDN and Kathy McManus, MS, RD, LDN and ask your burning questions about food, diets, and wellness.

This is perfect timing for May which hosts National Food Allergy Awareness Week (5/13-19) and is also National Celiac Awareness Month.
