Yafit, I wanted to thank you for your contribution to my patients when we worked together at the Institute for Movement Disorders in Sheba.

A healthy diet is essential for all of us and certainly for people who are dealing with neurological symptoms and also receiving complex treatments and medications with side effects. Sometimes the small changes in diet make big differences to quality of life.

 

When patients consult with us, we as physicians, do not always place enough emphasis on the importance of healthy living habits and proper nutrition in patients. But I as a doctor have always learned from you to talk about weight, appetite, gastrointestinal symptoms and nutrition in all my patients.

And of course the positive energies also contribute a lot.

first meeting

A process consisting of a meeting, working time after it to build a menu and arrange medication times and an explanation of the menu that was built.

 

In a comprehensive hour-and-a-half session we will go over your medical and nutritional history. I will understand the history of the disease, related health problems that have been discovered over the years and I will get from you the full picture I need to build an optimal menu for you. After the session I will sit for three hours and make an order while consuming the medication and food - so that they do not compete with the food or with themselves, I will recommend which supplements to leave and which to download and I will build you a custom menu. After that, the menu and the principles will be emailed to you and we will go over them together, by phone or in the zoom of your choice to make sure everything is clear and I will answer questions, if any . The meeting and the nutritional counselor support the medical counseling and do not come to replace it.

In honor of Yafit Ben Mordechai, a nutritionist, a member of the Wild Medical Advisory Committee.

On my behalf and on behalf of the Parkinson's Association members who attended the Winter Seminar in Tiberias, I would like to thank you for your response to take part in the seminar where we chose this time to examine the correct diet for the Parkinson's patient.

In your lecture you mentioned the food families that should be included in the patient's daily diet in order to maintain balance with the drugs. Brain researchers note the importance of nutrition in order to maintain normal and vital human brain activity. I have no doubt that your lecture has highlighted these points and will bring maximum attention to the subject.

I sincerely thank and appreciate your willingness to share with us your experience!
