The brain works 24/7, monitoring our thoughts and our moods, controlling our heart rate, our breathing, and even our memory recall. It only makes sense to keep it in tip-top shape. Learn how when Kristen Gustashaw, MS, RDN, LDN, CSG, presents “Mindful Diet, Healthy Living,” on Thursday, May 18, at 11 a.m. at The Holmstad, a faith-based, not-for-profit continuing care retirement community located at 700 W. Fabyan Parkway, in Batavia. Gustashaw is a certified specialist in gerontological nutrition at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. She will explain how diet and lifestyle choices can help optimize brain health. She’ll focus on nutrition and how certain foods such as berries, nuts, and vegetables – ingredients used in the MIND diet – can enhance memory and cognition. The MIND diet is a hybrid of the Mediterranean and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diets. Developed by a Rush University Medical Center nutritional epidemiologist and her colleagues, the MIND diet has shown to reduce the incidence of brain disease that increases a person’s risk in developing Alzheimer’s disease. After the free program, guests can enjoy a healthy lunch and tour the community. Space is limited and registration is required by calling 877-226-7310 or visiting www.TheHolmstad.org/events.

I am so thankful that a few of my fellow Batavian’s recommended the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to me. Since I joined I feel as though I have been blessed with a second family with all the support and motivation I get from them on a regular basis. Margaret, Patti and Shirley are the most amazing women. They have great passion for business and helping people. I truly feel they care about my business on a personal level and want to see it grow and succeed as much as I do! They have gone the extra mile to get my name and my business name out there and introduce me to the business community. The Chamber has so many opportunities available that have helped my business both grow and problem solve such as the free monthly Networking It events. I highly recommend the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to all business professionals.
