Nutrition Needs for Those Over 50

Sodium, fiber, calcium, oh my! When it comes to nutrition, the information is endless and a bit confusing. The situation is especially compounded when age is taken into account. This presentation will cover nutritional concerns for people over 50, such as diabetes, heart health, and muscle and bone strength.

Jen Hamblin is a registered dietitian at Baylor Scott and White Specialty Clinic in Marble Falls. She completed her undergraduate degree at UT-Austin, and her dietetic internship and master's degree at Lamar University. Her professional goal is to ensure everyone has a healthy relationship with food, diet, and lifestyle choices.
