Nutrition for Strength, Bones & Balance: Free Lecture April 18

I plan on aging gracefully and adventurously and helping others do the same! Hear my secrets tonight... — Photo by Mike Girardi

Bad news about aging: Starting in your 30s, your body begins losing muscle, bone mass, strength, and balance. This puts your health, energy, and ability to age gracefully in serious danger.

The good news: You can change this very real and scary picture with what you eat - and some of the news is surprising: For instance, saving your bone and muscle mass may have nothing to do with how much protein, calcium, or vitamin D you consume or even weight-bearing exercise you do! This is new and exciting state-of-the-art science. Hear my Georgetown Village lecture tonight - while nibbling on tasty appetizers and drinks - about how you can maximize your muscle, bone mass, strength and balance through nutrition.
