Nutrition for FSHD - Feb. 25, 2025 Multi-Chapter Education Meeting

Hosted by the New England Chapter, this meeting we will be discussing nutrition, protein and supplements – what is working for our community members and what is not. Selina Lai, a registered dietician and the Pacific Northwest Chapter director, will be attending to share her knowledge. The foods you eat impact your disease and can support improved muscle function in combination with supplementation and exercise. Using real FSHD patient food records, we will explore the journey to better nutrition for FSHD and discuss the dietary choices that we make each day. Selina Lai, from the Seattle area, has a registered dietitian credential and has practiced in nutrition for physical fitness and weight management for seniors and young children. She has been learning about the nutrition needs of FSHD patients, as several of her family members have FSHD.
