Nutrition Classes

Living Well offers nutrition classes designed to help patients with cancer and their caregivers make informed choices about nutrition and move through cancer treatment into survivorship.

Classes are hybrid; this means you can attend virtually or in person at Geneva. Classes are led by Living Well dietitians Nancy Zawicki, RD, LDN, MS; Mary Zupke, RD, LDN, MS, FAND; and the Northwestern Medicine Oncology Dietitian team.

Each class will also be available to watch live or to rewatch at a later time on our YouTube channel at youtube.com/c/livingwellcrc

Registration is available at Livingwell.NM.org
