Have you ever been curious to know what happens to that pizza you just ate?  How many cups of coffee is too many? Which is better for breakfast: a Snicker's candy bar or an omelette with a side of sausage?  Are brussells sprouts actually good for you? Well now is your chance to find out! On Wednesday, March 19th from 6-8pm at the Brookby Estate the Aquinas Chemical Society will be hosting Van Andel Institutes's Dr. Jason Cooper.  Dr. Cooper will be facilitating a conversation on the science of metabolism.  An informative and excellently designed (not by me) poster is attached as a .png file which gives details of the event.
