Big Green Week 10th-18th June
As part of the Great Big Green Week Frome Valley Medical Centre invites you to take part in their plant eating challenge! The aim is to see how many ‘whole plant foods’ you eat and then increase it for a 5 day period for a host of health benefits. Whole plant foods are basically where the thing you’re buying & eating looks like it does when it came out of the ground (so fruit, veg, nuts, seeds, whole grains, legumes & pulses)! We’re having a competition within the surgery with a prize. Maybe you could do the same in your family/workplace? See the attached document for more info.
