Dear Colleagues,
Those of you who work with patients who have Parkinson's disease and
their families may be interested to know that the National Parkinson
Foundation is featuring my latest publication. "Cook Well, Stay Well
with Parkinson's Disease" is displayed on their home page: www.parkinson.org
This is the first-ever cookbook especially designed to address many of
the special needs of those with PD, such as constipation, bone thinning,
loss of manual dexterity, and chewing difficulty.
Further, some NPF Chapters and Centers of Excellence now utilize my
professional's manual "Parkinson's Disease: Guidelines for Medical
Nutrition Therapy."
I think it is worthy of note that a national foundation is cognizant of
the importance of nutrition in helping patients to manage their disease.
I hope that other foundations will follow suit.
Best,
Kathrynne
