Expert Briefing: Nourishing Wellness - Nutrition for Parkinson's
Wellness Wednesday: Expert Briefing Series
Food is more than just fuel—it plays a powerful role in how we think, feel, and move. This session explores the connection between nutrition and Parkinson’s, covering how diet influences brain health, gut function, and overall well-being. We’ll discuss the impact of food on the body’s systems, the role of protein in medication effectiveness, and how to use nutrition as a tool to enhance quality of life.
