How to Manage Nutrition and Stressors as a Caregiver

The demands of caregiving can leave you feeling stressed, burned out, and low on energy. One way to boost your health is through nutritious meals. Good nutrition is essential for caregivers, as it helps regulate your health, energy, and mood. But with rising food costs and food insecurity, caregivers may find it challenging to maintain a regular nutritious plan.
In this webinar, you'll hear from Nishta Saxena, a registered dietitian and nutritionist, on how you can:
• Create quick nutritious meals and snacks for yourself while on a budget
• Manage stressors in your caregiving journey and what impact they have on your mood and sleeping habits
