Recipe Winner to Receive Free Brain Health Consult by Top Expert
21 Aprile 2014 - 6:14PM
With America's increasing focus on brain health and concern about
Alzheimer's disease, the "World's Smartest Recipe Contest" is
offering the opportunity to win an individual consultation with a
national expert on the subject. The competition, organized by
Emeritus Senior Living, comes as evidence increasingly shows that
certain foods promote cognitive fitness.
Salmon, sardines, crab, berries, walnuts, broccoli, curry,
avocados, spinach, brown rice, chickpeas and buckwheat are examples
of edibles that enhance mental fitness. Participants are invited to
enter recipes composed of one or more of brain-healthy ingredients.
The winner will receive a 30-minute free session by phone with Dr.
Paul Nussbaum, national director of brain health for Emeritus and
author of Save Your Brain. He is also clinical neuropsychologist
and adjunct professor of neurological surgery at the University of
Pittsburgh School of Medicine. Entries will be judged on their
brain-healthiness, taste and originality. Recipes should be
submitted to www.facebook.com/emeritusSL by May 16.
"With such a wide variety of food proving to be good for the
brain, there is a great amount of room for imagination with the
recipes," said Steve Sacco, senior divisional director of dining
services, Emeritus Senior Living. "We're looking forward to tasting
wonderful creations."
The prize of a personal consultation with Dr. Nussbaum is being
offered because of the public's concern about preserving mental
acuity as cases of Alzheimer's and other dementias soar.
"More and more people are asking us about what they can do to
keep their brains healthy into the future," Sacco said. "The winner
will be able to talk one-on-one with a top expert to ask questions
and receive personalized recommendations."
Dr. Nussbaum said: "Nutritional neurosciences research
increasingly supports the value of food in the structure and
function of the human brain. This recipe competition illustrates
that brain-healthy food can be delicious and that there are steps
people can take right now to help their cognitive fitness."
Five finalist recipes will be selected on May 21, and then
prepared and featured on social media. The winning recipe will be
announced on May 30. In addition to the consultation with Dr.
Nussbaum, the winner will receive a $200 culinary store gift
card.
