Surveys indicate that people fall dramatically short of their recommended fiber goals, missing out on a key strategy to promote health. Join Sharon Palmer, RD, a contributing editor at Today’s Dietitian and author of The Plant-Powered Diet for a complimentary one-hour continuing education webinar, during which you will learn:

  • Why people do not consume adequate amounts of fiber
  • Information about various types of fiber that can help promote health

This webinar was presented on Thursday, November 8, 2012, at 2 pm ET and is approved for one hour of continuing education credit.
