Last Friday, UCA partnered with Fidelis Care to host a seminar at Bay Ridge Center for Older Adults. The topic of this presentation was Understanding Blood Pressure and Cholesterol.

The seniors learned about the different types of fat, including HDL and LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and how diet contributes to the presence of these fats in the blood.

There was some great discussion during the presentation, including the effects of carbohydrates and a comparison of different cooking oils.

After a group photo, we gave away fresh produce to help some of the seniors get a head-start on their journey to better health through food.

Special thanks to the Bay Ridge Center for Older Adults for being such gracious hosts, and to Fidelis Care for your support and partnership!
