Summary: Please join us for 3 wonderful talks Friday, April 12, 2019, 8:30 AM to 11:55AM, at Caritas Christi, 129 DePaul Center Rd., Greensburg, PA. I will be speaking about diet, microbiome and the aging brain! Much of my talk will feature key points that I presented at the 2019 Virginia Council of Nurse Practitioner (VCNP) Annual Conference! You’ll learn that the Western Diet is aging the brain FASTER than the Mediterranean Diet, and that the MIND diet, a hybrid diet of the heart healthy Mediterranean Diet, DASH, and aging brain literature, decreases the risk of Alzheimer’s Disease and slows cognitive decline better that its constituent diets.
This is information you don’t want to miss! Please join us as ALL of the talks presented April 12th encompass keys to grateful and healthy aging, resilience, and holistic health.

Diet, Dementia, Cognition, Alzheimer’s
SUMMARY: We’re excited to be presenting what the evidence finds for WHAT TO EAT, and WHAT NOT TO EAT, for BRAIN HEALTH! We will be at the beautiful Blue Ridge Region for the 2019 Virginia Council of Nurse Practitioner (VCNP) Annual Conference! IN the meantime, you win too because we decided to share a bonus here –>\0/ the prelude videoto our presentation, which is called “Add 7.5 yrs to Brainspan with MIND diet and SAGE Cognition Assessment Tool”. We also want to let you know that your response has been overwhelming for wanting us to bring our DIET, DEMENTIA, COGNITION, ALZHEIMER’S presentation to you! We’re here to dispel the brain age MYTH –> Those in their 40s and 50s realize that brain changes are occurring in the midlife time-frame. By 2050, 20% of the US population will be over age 65. One fifth will have mild cognitive impairment, increasing risk of Alzheimer’s. The Western diet is aging the brain faster than the Mediterranean diet as found on both MRI and PET imaging. You need to learn all about this! We’re booking now, so if you are interesting in having your group learn this powerful information, click here to contact us! And, just adding… they are also including our other Therapeutic Diet presentations for (1) Hypertension, Atherosclerosis, and Obesity, (2) IBS and Autoimmunity, and of course (3) Dementia, Cognition, and Alzheimer’s. You can learn about all of those programs here! Let’s hear from you today. Let’s move off DiseaseSpan and onto HealthSpan!
Brain, Cognition, Diet, CE (Nursing). March 2019 PRESENTATION!
SUMMARY: Our upcoming CE presentation at the 2019 Virginia Council of Nurse Practitioner (VCNP) Annual Conference, March 7th, dives deep into BRAIN, COGNITION, DIET, CE, ALZHEIMER’S! We are going to share what the evidence finds for WHAT TO EAT, and WHAT NOT TO EAT, for BRAIN HEALTH! Our presentation is called “Add 7.5 yrs to Brainspan with MIND diet and SAGE Cognition Assessment Tool”. What you need to know –> A LOT of research is looking at specific diets and brain health. At this time, the MIND diet rises to the top for reducing the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and cognitive impairment both with strict and moderate follow. It is this latter finding that makes the MIND diet BETTER than the Mediterranean and DASH diet for brain health because those had NO significant impact on AD risk reduction for moderate follow! ♥–> Diet has incredible systemic reach, including all the way to crossing the blood brain barrier! BAM–> Diet is perhaps the biggest determinant of the microbiome constituents. The major focus of recent research is on the microbiome and its by-products (called metabolites) because those can be changed up by diet and lifestyle. Thus diet can alter the microbiome towards health (anti-inflammatory) or towards being more disease-prone (inflammatory). \o/ If you are a Licensed Nurse Practitioner (in any state), or student enrolled in a NP program, plan to attend this Brain, Cognition, Diet CE! Those unable to attend, or not nurse practitioners, message us for information on how you too can see this presentation! \o/ The bottom line is that everyone needs to hear this information because recent studies find that eating a Western-style diet literally SHRINKS the brain, even in middle age. The results accounted for the effects of all other lifestyle factors, indicating that, when people are in their 40s and 50s,diet exerts a stronger influence on Alzheimer’s disease than exercise or intellectual activity do. “Alzheimer’s doesn’t just turn on when you reach a certain age,” explains Lisa Mosconi, PhD, associate director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Clinic at Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian. “Instead, it’s a very long process that starts with changes in the brain when people are in their 40s and 50s. So we have a good 20 years to do something about it. The question is, what can we do in terms of prevention?” This Brain, Cognition, Diet, CE Alzheimer’s information is key to mitigating those risks! ♥
