     Clyde is available to give talks/workshops covering a wide
     range of nutrition topics. Workshops (where attendees are
     shown how to design their own personal nutrition plans)
     can be included in any talk session that is 1.5 hours or
     more in length. To schedule a seminar, contact Dr.
     Clyde Wilson at clyde[at]drclydewilson.com with the
     desired date and length, audience size, and topics.

     Seminar Menu:
     1-2 hr talk: Creating the Healthiest Diet
     Description: There are two powerful ways to determine the
     healthiest diet: Epidemiology and clinical research. The
     first shows us that we can score diets numerically to see
     how well they improve our health (i.e. how long they help
     us to live). Clinical research helps us to understand the
     processes in the body that leads to nutrition improving or
     reducing our health. Combining these techniques allows us
     to create the best diet for optimal health, including a meal
     planner and a grocery list.

     2-3 hr talk: Creating YOUR Optimum Diet
     DESCRIPTION:  The above (1-1.5 hr talk) description, plus
     the emphasis of a diet will shift depending on our specific
     goals, our daily schedule, and our food preferences.
     Ultimately, everyone's diet should be as unique as
     they are. Understanding some of the details associated with
     proteins, carbohydrates and fats allows us a tremendous
     amount of control over our dietary options to take us to our
     weight loss, longevity, energy or performance goals.

     3.5-4 hr talk: Taking It To The Next Level
     CHOOSE ANY 2 OF THE FOLLOWING 3 ITEMS TO BE
     INCLUDED IN THE SESSION:
     A workshop where attendees create their own nutrition      plans, OR:
     A 30 min workshop where I review products and      supplements brought in by the attendees, OR:
     The addition of some (3.5 hrs) or all (4 hrs) of the following
     special topics to the seminar:
     - Toxins in protein (mercury in fish, carcinogens in BBQ
       deli meats, etc): How much should we eat?
     - The impact of dietary fats on metabolism and brain health
     - Phytonutrients: What they do and how to optimize their
       impact on our lives
     - Low-calorie sweeteners: The facts, and how to address a
       sweet tooth or sugar addiction
     - ANY SPECIAL HEALTH OR PERFORMANCE TOPICS

     3-4 hr Nutrition training for Clinicians or Coaches
