Healthy Nutrition for Aging
Wednesday, Oct. 18 from 12:15-1 p.m.
Virtual via Zoom
Registration is free with the option to make a gift to support Virginia Tech's Hokie Wellness Fund.
Join Cornerstone Alumni for a virtual event exploring how to eat healthy as you age.
Eating plenty of nutrient-rich, nourishing foods is always important, but as our bodies go through the natural process of aging, certain nutrients become especially important for good health.
In Healthy Nutrition for Aging, we will discuss how specific macronutrients, micronutrients, and eating patterns can be especially helpful when navigating the physiological changes commonly associated with aging.
Ana Agud '17 is the manager for the Hokie Wellness Work/Life Program and will lead the discussion. Participants will also learn how healthy lifestyle habits such as staying socially connected and engaging in regular movement can also play a meaningful part in aging healthfully.
