Forward2025 Spring Symposium Keynote Luncheon: Women’s Wellness: A Modern Era of Science and Sensibility
It’s a new era where women are shaping modern wellness and transforming health. Women expect more benefits from the food they choose - foods that will supercharge their digestive and cardiovascular systems, help them achieve desired body composition and sustained energy, and support bone and brain health. The good news is, more attention is being given to women’s health, including how to navigate food-first approaches.
In this dynamic session, Katie Brown, EdD, RDN, FAND, President, National Dairy Council, will address how nutrition experts can empower women’s health outcomes through science and practical advice. Dr. Brown will highlight functional wellness topics that are top of mind for women with the latest lifestyle and nutrition evidence and provide a focus on dairy foods as important contributors to dietary success. Participants will leave the session armed with knowledge, tools, and resources to empower women to achieve holistic health.
This is not a webinar or course for purchase - this is a module for credit claiming for our 2025 Spring Symposium attendees and cannot be purchased or taken by non-attendees. These sessions are exclusive to our Symposium; however, the topics may be revisited in the future in the form of a webinar or self-study course.
