Brain Healthy Eating Series

In 2009 Senior Living Residences became the first assisted living company in the US to implement a specialized nutrition program, based on the Mediterranean Diet, to improve overall brain health for our residents. Since then the Mediterranean Diet has created enormous buzz and is now ranked the healthiest diet in the world, and easiest to follow, by US News & World Report.

This public education program brings our research and expertise to professionals and the general public about how to eat well to boost your cognitive and whole body health. As a way to expand our reach even further, SLR forged a strategic partnership with Oldways, creator of the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid, and launched BrainHealthyCooking.com

We offer 2 CEU programs:
