Welcome!
Whether you are 15 or 115 years old or anywhere in between, I hope you enjoy the information and nutrition/fitness links.
HEALTHY EATING combined with an ACTIVE LIFESTYLE is SMART !
There is increasing evidence that WHAT we eat and HOW we move can make a big difference – not just in how well we feel, but indeed how well we think!
This blog is a resource for students in my online nutrition course for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Virginia. Everyone is welcome to read this blog, however. After all, all of us will be interested in healthy aging eventually – if we are lucky!
About RuthK
My favorite course during ten years of teaching at Judson College in Marion, Alabama, was BIO 204 – Biochemical Nutrition, and a highlight each year was the Nutrition Dinner at the end of the course.
I now live in Charlottesville and offer an online course, Nutrition – Concepts and Controversies, for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Virginia. I am continuing this blog to support that course and, to be honest, just for fun.
