Author Ellie Krieger has an encouraging message for anyone dreading the season of holiday (over)eating: You can eat delicious food and maintain your health even when life is hectic. Bastyr University is proud to co-sponsor a talk with Krieger, a dietitian, host of Food Network’s acclaimed "Healthy Appetite" and The New York Times bestselling author of The Food You Crave, just in time for the holiday season.
Krieger specializes in offering real advice about food and healthy habits without gimmicks or crash diets. In a manner at once easygoing and direct, she says that with the right tools and knowledge, anyone can achieve a healthy, conscious approach to nutrition without sacrificing a pure love of food.
