Food as Medicine: An Evening with Dr. Anupama Saigal

September 8 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Presented by 4Root’s Culinary Health Institute at Center for Health & Wellbeing

What happens when the physician becomes the chef?

Join the Culinary Health Institute team for a special Food as Medicine experience led by Dr. Anupama Saigal, a fellowship-trained breast surgical oncologist with AdventHealth Medical Group, who will step into the kitchen as both physician and chef for the evening.

Dr. Saigal will prepare a three-course, plant-forward tasting menu while sharing practical insights into plant-based nutrition, healthy lifestyle choices, and the powerful role food can play in supporting lifelong health.

Watch each course come together through a live culinary demonstration, taste the finished dishes, and hear directly from Dr. Saigal as she brings together her perspectives from both the kitchen and the practice of medicine.

This is more than a cooking demonstration. It is an opportunity to experience Food as Medicine on the plate, with approachable ideas and inspiration you can take back to your own kitchen.

What to expect:

  • Three-Course Tasting – Enjoy a plant-forward tasting menu developed and prepared by Dr. Saigal.
  • Live Culinary Demonstration – See how wholesome ingredients can be transformed into flavorful, approachable dishes.
  • Food + Health Conversation – Learn from Dr. Saigal as she explores plant-based nutrition and healthy lifestyle choices through the lens of a physician.
  • Interactive Q&A – Ask questions and engage directly with Dr. Saigal throughout the evening.
  • Connection & Inspiration – Gather with others interested in discovering how food can become a meaningful part of a healthier life.
