Chasing the Fountain: The Role of Diet in Achieving Optimal Aging

CME Credit Available for Physicians!

In this engaging course, hear from two exciting projects funded by the National Institutes of Aging. These investigators recently completed planning projects in either younger or older adults to inform the design of 5-year randomized nutrition intervention trials with the goal of studying their benefits to human aging. Learn about the findings from these projects as well as the chosen nutrition strategy(ies) and why, target participants, safety considerations, the use of technology to bolster adherence, and the chosen outcomes. 

Originally presented at NUTRITION 2025, ASN's flagship meeting which was held May 31 to June 3 in Orlando, FL.
