A Guide to Mindful Eating

Every March, we celebrate National Nutrition Month, a time to recognize the importance of healthy food choices and establish beneficial eating and physical activity patterns.
As we age, it’s crucial to reassess our dietary needs. Simple changes can make a big difference in cultivating healthy eating habits, especially for older adults.
Let’s shine a spotlight on adopting a mindful and balanced approach to nutrition this year. By embracing dietary diversity and understanding the basics of nutrition, we can lead a healthier lifestyle and lower the risk of chronic conditions or illnesses.

National Nutrition Month is an annual reminder of the power we have to shape our health through the choices we make each day.

By embracing dietary diversity and understanding the basics of nutrition, we can pave the way for a healthier lifestyle while lowering the risk of chronic conditions or illnesses.

Meet Chris Hernandez, RDN

Hi! I’m Chris, the Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) at Age Well Senior Services. I’m a foodie at heart with a love for cooking.
Combining my passion for nutrition with my strong background in research in optimal performance, I like to blend scientific insight with more practical dietary guidance. I take great pride in being a proponent of helping people live their healthiest lives so that they can continue to do everything they love.
Beyond my role at Age Well, I’m a fine art wedding photographer and filmmaker and a strength and nutrition coach dedicated to achieving the peak performance of combat athletes.
If I’m not in the office, editing studio, or coaching in the gym, I’m probably off the grid, trekking through the backcountry and getting some fresh air. With a lifelong commitment to competitive athletics, my love for the great outdoors, and my strive for physical challenges, I’m devoted to spreading awareness and knowledge about achieving optimal health and performance.
I’m incredibly excited to share insights and help my community where everyone can live their best life!
