Upcoming programs at Bay Village Branch Library

Now that spring is here, it's a great time to get focused on healthy living and re-energizing your body. We're pleased to host nutritionist Lori DePietro-Standen at the Bay Village library on Saturday, April 14, at 2 p.m. as she presents her program, "Embracing the Anti-Inflammatory Lifestyle." Learn what foods are anti-inflammatory and how to incorporate them into your diet to help you heal from inflammation and lose weight.
