Brainfood – Is there legal doping for the brain?

really help? How do I organize my meals at work or in my free time? An exciting lecture that takes a deep look into our brains.

Koch-Workshop
Myths of a healthy diet

What do I need to do to stay as healthy as possible?

We are almost inundated with information on this every day in the media. Not a day goes by without a new message being spread about what or how we should eat, which foods protect us from illness or are our undoing. Health is bought with superfoods and “free-from” products. The important thing is that it has to be organic, because everything else poisons us.

The topic of nutrition is subject to many clichés: “Can I still eat after 17:00?” “Am I over-acidified?” “Is a vegan diet really the healthiest?” And many more statements. But is it really that simple? What do all the studies actually say?

Students from the University of Duisburg-Essen, the Folkwang University of the Arts and the Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences are cordially invited! The workshop is free of charge.

Koch-Workshop
Tricks of the food industry

If you want to eat healthily, it's not easy in the supermarket. After all, who can make sense of the obscure labels? What is behind the barely pronounceable ingredients? How much sugar is actually in the products? Which ingredients are harmful and which are not?

The consumer is left unsure. And you often hear the question: “What should I buy anyway?” We clarify these and other questions in the workshop.
