HealthyU Lunch 'n Learn: Know Your Biometric Numbers

What will be the topic?

Know Your Biometric Numbers

Biometric numbers measure blood pressure, waist circumference, cholesterol, glucose and triglycerides. These numbers help provide information about your overall health and can help identify risk factors for disease. Let's take a deeper dive into the implications of these numbers and how to make simple lifestyle changes to improve them.

The event will be led by Mascha Davis MPH, RDN -

Mascha is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) with a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree, based in Los Angeles, CA. Her journey and discovery of what it means to truly live a healthy life has taken her around the globe. She has worked in world-class medical centers in the US, offices of international organizations in Geneva and rural villages throughout Africa.

With an immersive understanding of health matched with a global perspective on food and nutrition, she emphasizes an approach that is holistic - beyond fad diets and short term trends.
