Take Charge of Parkinson's Disease by Carolyn J Stinson
UPDATED 2nd Edition. Motivated by her husband Mike's PD, Anne Mikkelsen developed a cooking style that blends her training in traditional French cooking with emerging science on the importance of brain-healthy food. Mike, an award-winning potter and sculptor, has skillfully adapted his art to accommodate the advancing stages of PD. Together, they have overcome many of the obstacles of living with Parkinson's disease. Take Charge of Parkinson's Disease is written for everyone affected by PD-those who have the disease, families, and caregivers. Its focus on a healthy lifestyle, emphasizing nutrition and exercise as a way to maintain optimal health, is interspersed with Anne's memoir of her journey with her husband as they discovered how to live well with PD. A chapter on issues of caregiving and the challenges it presents to a relationship enhances the book's comprehensive coverage of living with PD.
Anne Mikkelsen studied traditional French cooking with Simone Beck. She brought this expertise to hosting a cooking show, and has owned restaurants, a catering business, and a B&B. She is active in the Parkinson's disease community, and brings her love of cooking and healthy activity to this book. Carolyn Stinson is a writer and publicist. The results of her research, writing and editing on a wide range of health care topics have been published in diverse media and educational literature for health care consumers.
