Global Conference 2014
Nutrition and Fitness: Living Well Forever
Tuesday, April 29, 2014 / 3:45 pm - 4:45 pm
We all want to live long, healthy lives. But the path to achieving that lofty goal can be littered with obstacles. We're bombarded daily with media reports on natural ways to stay healthy but it can be tricky distinguishing the hope from the hype, the comprehensible from the contradictory. Hormonal levels, for instance, fluctuate with age. But is hormone replacement helpful or harmful? Some nutritional supplements can be valuable therapeutic tools while others are worthless or even detrimental. At this panel, we'll learn about staying healthy through balanced nutrition, periodic fasting and strength training. Physicians, researchers and a personal trainer will clarify the scientific realities and discuss the ideal lifestyle choices that will enable us to enjoy a long, disease-free life.
