Slowing Cognitive Decline with the MIND Diet and Other Nutritional Strategies

Dr. Kolasa will introduce us to Sandy, a patient from the ECU Family Medicine clinic who is complaining of memory loss. She will discuss how a patient with B12 deficiency and/or of food insecurity can present with symptoms of dementia. She will demonstrate how to in a clinic setting assess Sandy’s food security as well as her B12 adequacy. She will describe the MIND approach to eating and how to assess adherence.
