When memory issues are in the mix, Thanksgiving dinner can pose unique challenges.

To begin your feast with memory support in focus, prioritize protein-rich options such as turkey. Proteins aid in energy regulation and attention, providing a sturdy base for the remainder of the meal. Complement this with complex carbohydrates like sweet potatoes 🍠 and broccoli 🥦 salad to initiate a well-rounded start, fostering sustained energy minus the sugar rush.

Keep in mind the importance of moderation—a thoughtfully crafted plate can enhance both flavor and your ability to stay present throughout the celebration. #MemoryFriendlyThanksgiving #MindfulEating #lifefitbrainfit
