In addition to our existing roster of nutrition workshops* we are delighted to offer a series of four new topics, presented by our fully qualified team of nutritional therapists.
Recognising the benefits of healthy eating and nutrition in the workplace is a staple of the traditional wellbeing strategy, but keeping your employees up to date with the specific areas of nutrition that affect them personally is the best way to engage staff in healthy eating and nutrition – for their personal wellbeing as well as performance and effectiveness at work.
The new Nutrition Workshops are:
Longevity
Longevity is much more than lifespan and how long we live. We need to focus on improving our “healthspan” – how long we will be healthy for. Decisions and lifestyle choices we make can help protect against degenerative diseases including cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer as well as boosting overall health, contributing to performing well professionally and personally.
- Lifestyle choices around diet, exercise and sleep
- The impact of alcohol, smoking and an unhealthy diet
- Intermittent fasting, genetics and reversing biological age.
