Hormones and Nutrition: The Connection Between Hormones, Metabolism and Your Eating

Do you wonder why eating the same foods you used to eat up until your 30’s and 40’s are now associated with weight gain and redistribution of body fat around your abdomen? Hormones, metabolism, and nutrition impact each other in multiple ways, and metabolic and hormonal changes affect both men and women throughout the lifespan. Join Nina Frusztajer, MD, MS for an interactive discussion on how you can eat in ways that best align with your hormones and metabolism thereby supporting your overall health and wellbeing. 

Open to clients and caregivers.  Free program with optional donations accepted at registration.  This program will meet on zoom.
