If you’re like most people, you have plenty of questions about nutrition: What should I eat before and after a workout?  How can I choose smarter, healthier foods at the grocery store or in a restaurant?  Which vitamins should I be taking, if any?  Get answers to these questions and more when you join Human Resources for the Fall 2007 wellness series Nutrition 101: From A to Zinc.  For more information about the workshops included in this series and to register, visit www.hr.upenn.edu/quality/wellness/workshops.asp or contact Human Resources at (215) 898-5116 or suzsmith@hr.upenn.edu.
