About this Event
Knowledge College for Aging
10am-11am - Thursday - August 27th 2026
Join us as Dr. Mike Edwards PhD, CHHP, CHES, CPT, Professor at the Faith College of Natural Health, shares on "Managing or Curing GERD Without Drugs!"
Millions of seniors experience chronic acid indigestion or GERD and are often prescribed drugs to block stomach acid production. This often prolongs or worsens the problem since the older we become, the less stomach acid is produced to help digest our food. In addition acid reducers often create nutritional deficiencies which could lead to serious health consequences.
Helping Seniors Executive Director Kerry Fink hosts the 2026 Knowledge College for Aging series with a look at the steps for "Getting Your Ducks in a Row" and the 7 Key Pillars of a Good Aging Plan.
Helping Seniors Knowledge College for Aging!
The Aging Plan Series presented by Helping Seniors
A key component of your Aging Plan—what we call “Getting Your Ducks in a Row”— is knowing what key components should be in it and how to bring it all together.
Here in Florida, we all know the importance of having a Hurricane Plan—not because we want a storm, but because we want to be prepared. An Aging Plan follows the same principle. It doesn’t mean expecting problems—it means being ready for whatever comes your way.
Through our Knowledge College for Aging series, you’ll learn how to build your own Aging Plan—your personal roadmap for “Getting Your Ducks in a Row.”
Be proactive. Be prepared. Join us in creating a smart Aging Plan, tailored to your needs.
