Day 1 of 3 at DC Conference!

Hi Everyone,

So we’re at the conference learning and tasting many new things! Toronto is gorgeous with great weather. Yesterday we attended the Welcome Reception in the evening-great appies and because it was partially sponsored by Molson we got to try the new lime 67 calorie beer (very light and tasty by the way). Here we are with BC Executive Regional Director of Dietitian’s of Canada, Kristen Yarker.

More to come soon following Monday’s segment.

National Memory Screening Day

Today is National Memory Screening Day so we provided the top 5 ways to improve your memory through diet according to recent research. Listen to the clip here.

Here’s a Recap:

  1. Increase dietary fibre intake and limit white flours
  2. Have breakfast high in protein and complex carbohydrates (fibre) regularly
  3. Increase your fruit and vegetable intake to include more antioxidants
  4. Have more fatty fish and food sources of omega 3 fats
  5. Stay hydrated with water. Dehydration is linked to confusion.

To get screened, visit a London Drugs and a pharmacist will assess you.

Stay happy and healthy Vancouver!
