Healthy Nutrition as We Age

  • Edgewater Branch Library 6000 North Broadway Chicago, IL, 60660 United States (map)

Optimal nutrition, through food choices and eating patterns, is important for individuals of any age, including older folks.  Emerging research suggests that cognitive function may be linked to eating patterns.  This session will provide an overview of key nutrients for healthy aging, concepts related to chronic disease management and strategies to incorporate beneficial nutrients into our lives. 

During this presentation, we’ll make a healthy but tasty salad that everyone can share!

Presented by Joanne Kouba, PhD, RDN, LDN, Registered Dietitian and Associate Professor of Loyola University Chicago’s Parkinson School of Health Sciences and Public Health.

Presented in partnership with Edgewater Branch Library. Please register on the library website.
