    Course start date:  Fri 17 May 2024 (and 1 other date)

    Location on this date:  Online

    Tutors:  Ellie Holly
    Do you want to be fit and healthy in old age? Do you want to avoid the common diseases of old age and live a rich and independent life? Then this is the course for you!







    This course is all about learning how to slow down the aging process by giving your body the nutrients it needs to stay strong and healthy, and avoiding the foods and drinks which damage health and accelerate aging.



    Learn which foods and drinks slow down aging and protect your body from the diseases of older age, and which foods you should be avoiding. Gain a proper understanding of why some foods are so good for us, and why some are so damaging to our bodies. This is a relaxed and friendly class where questions are welcomed. It is packed with information and you should leave it feeling inspired to make healthier decisions about what you do and don’t eat and drink.



    Nutrition to slow down aging part one, and Nutrition to slow down aging part two, are two separate, standalone courses. You can take both courses, or just one. Ideally take part one first, but it doesn’t matter if you do them the other way around.



    This course will be delivered online. See the ‘What is the course about?’ section in course details for more information.
