NIHAN’s Geriatric Seminar Series provides free health care education and resources to the geriatric community, by presenting topics related to the 4M’s, an age-friendly health care framework—What Matters, Medication, Mobility, and Mentation. The goal of the 15-session NIHAN Geriatric Series is to foster healthy aging for old adults, in order to create a more healthy and age-friendly geriatric community in Nevada.

For the 9th week of the NIHAN Geriatric Seminar Series, this nutrition-focused seminar, a Registered Dietitian and Chef will be discussing the power of functional foods to prevent and manage diabetes. This one-hour session will discuss what functional foods are, where to find them, and how they help protect our bodies. Many culinary tips for making functional foods part of your daily diet will be included and discussed throughout the presentation!
