ONLINE: A Zoom invitation link will be sent the Friday before class begins.
This presentation provides an update on Time-Restricted Eating (TRE), a form of fasting that limits eating to a certain number of hours each day. While gaining in popularity, some still question whether or not TRE is a healthy practice. In one way or another, daily fasting was likely something that was practiced unintentionally by our ancestors, who did not have 24/7 access to food the way we do today. Utilizing a combination of online videos and PowerPoint images, presenter Robbi Duda RN MS, will discuss the science behind Time-Restricted Eating, a program that is currently being used to treat Type 2 Diabetes. In addition to controlling diabetes and some immune system disorders, TRE is also designed to help people lose weight and reduce hypertension. Robbi will also discuss practical approaches to this method. Robbi Duda is a retired nurse educator and American Nurses Credentialing Center (AANC) Board Certified Geriatric Nurse. She has a master's degree in Community Health Nursing from the University of Michigan.
