The lessons of COVID-19 are still unfolding, but one thing is clear: Underlying chronic health conditions like obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease make our communities much more susceptible to worse COVID-19 outcomes. These conditions are more important than age, meaning that all New Yorkers are empowered to improve their health with optimal nutrition and healthy lifestyle behaviors. Learn the science behind healthy eating and see a new path forward with renowned nutrition experts Michael Greger, bestselling author of How Not to Die and How Not to Diet, and Susan Benigas, the Executive Director of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and Co-Founder of the Plantrician Project.
Join us for a free webinar with Q&A, hosted by Richard Rosenfeld and Elizabeth Helzner, from SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University, and Lianna Levine Reisner, from Plant Powered Metro New York.
