Colors Sitges Link, through the project “Older People Without Closets“, and the ASBAFI association, invite you to participate in the workshop “Our health around the plate, a program to prevent malnutrition in the elderly”.
Considering that maintaining good health involves practicing good nutrition, it is essential to bring specific information on this subject to older people.
This program consists of a colloquium-workshop where very basic concepts about nutrition and different pathologies that affect the eating behavior of older people are taught. These colloquiums also have the main objective: to detect, prevent and assess cases of malnutrition and or the processes related to it.
Workshop recommended for people over 50 years old.
