To help promote dissemination of Culinary Medicine to other institutions, the Osher Center and Common Threads have partnered to host a Cooking Up Health Train-the-Trainer workshop, where prospective schools and organizations can learn the process of implementation, needed steps for success, and acquire the existing curriculum for use in their own institution.

Cooking Up Health (CUH) is a Culinary Medicine elective for health professional students developed by faculty from the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine at Northwestern University in partnership with the non-profit community organization Common Threads.  Our CUH course is intended to expand students’ comfort in counseling patients in successful behavior change around nutrition and cooking, as well as develop skills for personal well-being. We’re passionate about promoting health and preventing disease through  nutritious and delicious food.
