NEWPORT – “The Surprising Biochemistry of Weight Gain,” an opportunity to learn about how and why we gain and maintain extra weight, will be presented Thursday, May 23 starting at 6:30 p.m. at Create Arts Center in Newport.
The Selkirk Alliance for Science organized it as part of their Power of Science presentation.
Certified Nutritarian Health Coach, Kamori Cattadoris, will present the little-known discoveries about the chemical processes and substances that are within living organisms.
“Clearly, if it were just a simple matter of ‘Eat Less, Move More’ we’d all be at our ideal weight and feeling in control. You will be amazed at the human body’s intricately orchestrated biochemistry of life,” she said.
A medical doctor at the University of Colorado, along with other contributing scientists, have designed experiments to track the factors driving our modern weight-gain epidemic and associated chronic diseases.
Cattadoris will take us through several questions: Why do we gain weight? Why can’t we just drop the unwanted pounds at will -- and keep them off? What is the ancestral diet? How does what and how we eat flip the human biochemistry switch from surviving the famine to out-running the tiger? She will present answers we can implement in our own lives.
This Power of Science presentation is open to the public without an admission fee; however, donations are always welcome. The event is made possible by the generosity of our sponsors, Create Arts Center, Kalispel Natural Resources Department, Responsible Growth NE Washington, and private donors.
