DESCRIPTION
During this course, we will focus on the ever changing and unique physiological, neurohormonal and nutritional needs of females throughout the various stages of the life course: adolescence, reproductive age, pregnancy/lactation, perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. Participants will understand how each of these life stages requires distinct nutritional recommendations to support overall wellbeing and optimal health. Recent research will be reviewed and discussed addressing new findings and advances in monitoring women’s health during these stages as well as dietary and supplemental interventions for optimal health.
