MS Culinary Medicine Workshop for Nutrition Month
Master’s students at Columbia University’s Institute of Human Nutrition (IHN) celebrated Nutrition Month in 2025 with a culinary medicine workshop combining cooking and a conversation about food and sleep.
Students prepared beet hummus and white bean dip using recipes from Eat Better, Sleep Better, co-authored by Marie-Pierre St-Onge, PhD, and Kat Craddock. Two participants also took home signed copies of the cookbook.
The workshop concluded with a talk by Marie-Pierre St-Onge about the relationship between food and sleep. Her research examines connections among diet, sleep, and cardiometabolic health, providing a scientific perspective alongside the cooking activities.
For students, the event offered an opportunity to prepare recipes together and hear from a researcher studying the relationship between nutrition and sleep.
