Barbara Hribar
What do I do?
“As an educator, I coach adults 60+ toward better metabolic health so they can stay independent and fully engaged in life.”
What do I mean by metabolic health?
“Metabolic health is how well your body manages and uses energy to keep you functioning well. We talk a lot about what we’re learning from the latest nutrition research and about lifestyle habits that affect energy, aging, brain health, and inflammation.”
Am I a nurse? A doctor? A dietitian?
“No. I’m an educator and coach, not a licensed medical professional. I provide education and coaching, and when something involves diagnosis, medication, or medical treatment, I encourage people to work with their healthcare professionals.”
For a Consultations or Workshops
I am an educator and health and life coach, not a licensed medical professional. The information I share is for educational purposes and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease or to replace individualized medical advice. Please discuss medical concerns, medications, supplements, and significant dietary changes with your qualified healthcare professional.
