Our memory care communities offer the recognized Mood Food program, an integrative approach that is combined expertise in nutrition, preventative psychology, and consumer behavior psychiatry.   Mood Food is an evidence-based approach to understanding the potential of nutrients, dietary patterns, and food related behaviors in preventing depression, a prevalent symptom of dementia that affects roughly 40% of those suffering from the disease.  In addition, as part of our dining experience, we provide a warm towel infused with lemon essential oils prior to meals to stimulate the appetite.
