Kellie Creamer reads at Eagle Harbor Books
“My Body, My Vehicle” is a GPS guide to navigate your way toward better health.

Bainbridge author Kellie Creamer puts readers in the driver’s seat by taking a closer look at body systems, food supply and how advertising influences perception.

Creamer will read from her new book from 3 to 4 p.m. Sunday at Eagle Harbor Book Company, 157 Winslow Way.

Despite, or perhaps because of, the many food options available, Americans are unhealthier than ever.

Drawing on 20 years experience as a nutrition and wellness educator in schools and universities, private homes, businesses, health clubs, hospitals, clinics, senior centers and food banks, Creamer offers simple,  easy-to-follow steps for taking control of your body.

Creamer has a Bachelor's Degree in nutritional science, a certification in Ayurvedic medicine, and a Master's Degree in community health. Her work with PeaceCorps took her to West Africa where she taught nutrition.
