Our August Speaker Series welcomes Hanna Rifkin, Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist. Ms. Rifkin's presentation will cover nutritional topics such as:
- Prediabetes
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Nutrition and Lifestyle
- Cholesterol and Blood Pressure
- How to manage and prevent these conditions
Hanna has been working as a registered dietitian in various chronic diseases for about 10 years. Her love of cooking motivated her to become a dietitian. When she learned of the high rate of type 2 diabetes (about 10% in the U.S. according to the CDC), and that a lot of what determines outcomes is modifiable, she decided to specialize in diabetes -- she wanted to help.
This event is co-sponsored by Benicia Public Library and is FREE and OPEN to the PUBLIC.
