At Family Practice Center, our commitment to health and wellness for the entire body extends far beyond health related appointments with our patients. We consider ourselves part of a community and love having the opportunity to connect with people outside of the standard appointment setting. One way we accomplish this is with our Health & Wellness series, like our upcoming “Mini-Bites” series, held at our Family Practice Center Buford location. Keep reading for everything you need to know about our new health and wellness event.
“Mini Bites” sessions will focus on the importance of good nutrition and healthy eating as a component of weight management. And more specifically, on the positive impact of healthy snacking. Conducted by our own Dr. Leah Mackling and health coach Susan Bleyle “Mini-Bites” sessions will take place one Friday per month from August through the end of the year. The exact dates are as follows:
- Friday August 8th from 2:30pm – 3:30pm
- Friday September 5th from 2:30pm – 3:30pm
- Friday October 3rd from 2:30pm – 3:30pm
- Friday December 5th from 2:30pm – 3:30pm
Each session features:
- Nutrition insights on heart-healthy snacking—low sugar, nutrient-rich choices
- Hands-on cooking demos and tastings to turn theory into delicious reality
- Practical tools and recipe suggestions for everyday success
- Q&A time with our experts to answer your specific concerns
Joining Dr. Macklin will be Susan Bleyle, a board-certified Health and Wellness coach
and licensed Food for Life instructor. Susan is an expert on nutrition and wellness, based on her scientifically-backed philosophy on whole-food plant-based diet. She will be on-hand at every “Mini-Bites” session to provide guidance, recipe suggestions, answer questions, and more.
Spaces are limited, so anyone interested in attending a session should contact Family Practice Center Buford (and ask for Jenny!) to reserve their spot today!
