Health Issues Seminar: Aug 21


A series of Wellness Seminars is being organized for the residents of Wolf Laurel.

The first in this series is scheduled for Friday, August 21 at 3 pm in the clubhouse old bar and will cover age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a progressive disease that results in serious visual impairment and finally, blindness. Recently a model for this disease has been created in animals which is remarkably similar to the human condition.

This informative FREE seminar will feature doctors from Johns Hopkins Medical Center who will describe the model, East Tennessee State University who will explain a novel drug delivery system to the eye, the President and CEO of Wellness Institute, Inc who will review oxidative stress testing strategies and myself who will talk on the relevance of taking antioxidants for treating AMD.

For more info, contact Don Armstrong at 689-8505.
