Presented together with JASA

In America, aging often goes hand-in-hand with physical and cognitive decline. But evidence shows that frailty and decline need not be the norm. Join Plant Powered Metro New York to explore the evidence behind whole food, plant-based nutrition to both prevent diseases associated with aging, like dementia, and also to aid in treating and even reversing conditions as common as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, overweight, diabetes, and others. Optimal nutrition offers one of the most exciting paths forward in senior wellness.

We'll be learning with geriatrician Susan Friedman, MD, from Rochester Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Aisha Parillon from the senior service agency JASA, and community members will offer incredible yet common stories of health transformation, even at an advanced age.

A Zoom link will be sent to all registrants the morning of this event.
