Are there Dietary Supplements for Brain Health
The Global Council on Brain Health, is an AARP funded organization that is composed of a group of
top neurologists, nutritionists, and researchers. This group states that more and more adults in the
U.S. ages 50+ spend between $20-$60 a month on dietary supplements for brain health. How
useful are these dietary supplements? Are they safe and can they interact with medicines that you
are taking daily? Join us for a presentation on “what the current science says” on this topic.
Afterwards, there will be one-on-one appointments available for participants to review their
medications with a pharmacist.

Osteoporosis: Let’s make no bones about it!
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) describes osteoporosis as a disease that causes bones to become
fragile leading to an increase in the risk of fracture of the hip, spine, and wrist. Both women and men

have this condition or are at risk for developing it. This presentation will cover the ways suggested by
the NIH to detect, prevent and treat the disease. The discussion will also include the range of medica-
tions physicians can use to help manage the condition. Afterwards, there will be one-on-one appoint-
ments available for participants to review their medications with a pharmacist.
