Brain Health Kitchen and Broadway’s Best for PD: Boosting Brain Health with Food

The most powerful tool we have to prevent or slow down Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease and dementia is food. Broadway’s Best for Parkinson’s presents a fun panel discussion with a team of experts in brain health, to explore how the foods we eat influence our health and wellbeing. Join Annie Fenn, M.D., founder of the Brain Health Kitchen, the only cooking school focused on cognitive wellness, to learn how maintaining brain health is easy, accessible, and delicious; Matthew E. Fink, M.D., chairman of the Department of Neurology at Weill Cornell Medical College, and neurologist-in-chief at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, to hear the latest updates in brain research; and Marisa Seifan, a former federal prosecutor turned CEO and co-founder of Honeybrains, to discover why she created the first restaurant dedicated to better brain health. Moderated by Caroline Kohles, Marlene Meyerson JCC Manhattan senior director of Health + Wellness, this lively discussion will also include cognitive hypnotherapist Suzette Shahmoon, on how caregivers can benefit from healthy lifestyle and eating habits. And of course we will end the evening with a live performance by Broadway actor and musician, Matt Castle.
We’ll also share insights from Annie Fenn’s debut book, The Brain Health Kitchen: Preventing Alzheimer’s through Food, which includes over 100 recipes for the whole family designed to promote brain health and cognitive decline prevention through mindful eating.
This event was recorded live in person on Monday April 17, 2023.
