University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences held a cooking class for Parkinson’s patients on Thursday as part of their Day of Giving.
Alyssa Frisby,a registered dietitian at UAMS and Arkansas Children’s Hospital, spoke about how the classes help give back to the community.
“It’s really an opportunity for anybody who has been impacted or touched by UAMS to give back so that we can do the awesome work that we do,” says Frisby.
“With culinary medicine, we are teaching home chief skills and basic nutrition education, and we give participants the experience to practice those things in our teaching kitchen here on campus.”
