A four-part nutrition and wellness program will be held at the East Feliciana Extension Office on August 9,16, 23 & 30 from 10:00-11:30am.
Stay Independent is for adults age 60+. Key behaviors placing older adults at risk are not eating three meals a day and limited intakes of protein and produce. And many older adults are not physically active which can increase their risk of sarcopenia, or age-related muscle wasting. Stay Independent provides these older adults with research-based nutrition and wellness information to help them reduce their nutritional risk and sarcopenia risk. The program will be conducted by Layne Langley, Area Nutrition with the LSU AgCenter. Participants will receive all information presented at each class.
In order for the program to be offered, a minimum of 5 registrants will be required.
