Had a great time presenting in a webinar this afternoon on "Eat Well and Live Well According to Your Body’s Needs" with over 100 amazing participants! We had some fantastic discussions and lots of great questions about how to personalize nutrition for better health.

A big shoutout to our awesome partners, Speedoc and LifeHub from StarHub in Singapore. Thanks to everyone who joined us! Together, we're making healthier living a reality.

Special thanks to for making this collaboration possible.

Why I Chose Eldercare

I have been in eldercare for the past 9 years, and today, I was reflecting on the journey I have been on thus far. From working at St Luke's Eldercare in Singapore, one of the most reputable eldercare operators in the country, to now running my own dietetics consultation services specializing in eldercare, it’s been quite a journey. It was never a coincidence that I stepped into eldercare during a low season of my life. My passion grew as I received a book from the then-CEO of St Luke's Hospital.

Standing in the gap for seniors has always been my passion. I strongly believe in the power of eating right to recover well. Simply put: not eating right means not getting the right nutrients, which leads to not having enough energy, resulting in no strength, increased family/caregiver stress, more hospital stays/bills, weight loss, and ultimately, a longer recovery time.

Having the right knowledge of nutrition is crucial. Let's close the gaps one step at a time.

ReU Living is an Eldercare and a post-surgery recovery center located inside the Micasa Hotel. Yes, you read it right. It’s in the hotel.

It always feels good and special to support clients in such a unique setting, offering personalized nutrition care for a smooth recovery journey.

Stay tuned for more updates on our holistic approach to health and wellness.

We are happy to share our recent engagement with KLKOM as part of their Healthier Food and Beverages Improvement Plan.

Join us this weekend as we bust some myths about food and nutrition for seniors. Let's get real and get the facts right!

Don’t miss out!

Last Sunday, our dietitian had the incredible opportunity to be part of a unique and informative session at the inspiring . We aim to partner with reputable brands to help consumers make the right choices for their health.

The event was set up like a vibrant flea market, and it came with a twist - we were encouraged to bring our own plates, cups, and containers, fostering an eco-friendly environment. We were also experienced using coconut husks to scrape down the coconut flesh.

We indulged in an array of wholesome treats and were even presented with a special drink designed to promote gut health, setting the perfect tone for the day. Our dietitian, Yi Bin, couldn't get enough of the Chee Cheong Fun made with Sunria rice from Indonesia and was pleasantly surprised to find herself enjoying the flavors of tempeh, a food she wasn't fond of before.

What truly struck a chord with us was the commitment and effort put forth by the incredible team at . Not only did they organize this remarkable event for organic shop owners/suppliers, and introducing price standardizations, but their company has also evolved into a workers' co-op, showcasing their dedication to sustainable practices and community building.

If you're looking for nutritious products and an extraordinary concept, we wholeheartedly recommend visiting Justlife's shops. Trust us, it's a must-visit!

Check out Justlife's shops and let us know about your amazing discoveries. Remember, your health and well-being matter, and we're here to support you every step of the way.

We're conducting another nutrition training session for nurses in the Singapore healthcare industry. This time, we're joined by nurses from Ang Mo Kio Thye Hua Kwan Hospital, Home Nursing Foundation, Ling Kwang Home for Senior Citizens, St. Andrew Community Hospital and Nursing Home, and Crawfurd Hospital. It's a privilege to share our knowledge with these dedicated professionals.

During the training, we include various activities to meet our learning outcomes. These activities include examining validated nutrition screening tools, trying out oral nutrition supplements, and tackling the complexities of delivering nutrition to patients with severe wounds.

We emphasised again on the importance of the right sequence of care. Proper nutrition is needed with supplementation and correct wound care to achieve wound healing.

Discover 5 essential tips for promoting healthy aging!

At Beyond Food, we prioritize practicality in designing meal plans for seniors. Our approach emphasizes thoughtful meal preparation over forced eating – because nourishing your body is key to graceful aging.

Join us in the journey to eat well and age well. The quality of life matters.

What's the right sequence of care and where does nutrition fit in?

Our dietitian had the privilege of participating in the 18th Malaysian Congress of Geriatric Medicine (MCGM) 2023 as a speaker, addressing the given topic of "Nutrition as Medicine in Fallers with Parkinson's Disease." This event provided us with a unique platform to share insights with a diverse audience primarily composed of esteemed Doctors, Geriatricians, and Healthcare Professionals. The experience was both humbling and invaluable.

Nutrition had a significant impact on the recovery process, particularly following a fall. Keep in mind that consuming a proper diet is essential for effective healing.

True facts: There are only about 60+ geriatricians in Malaysia (none in Perlis and Terrengganu)- Too little but will have more soon.

In our recent talk, we didn't just discuss suitable foods and nutrients for seniors, but we also shared 5 valuable tips on how to eat well to meet their nutritional needs.

During the Q&A session, we were taken aback by the number of dieting-related questions (Keto-diet, skipping meals, fasting, etc.) from seniors. Is dieting truly relevant for our senior population? Let's give it a second thought!

In our upcoming posts, we will delve deeper into this topic to ensure that all seniors are well-informed about the importance of proper nutrition and to debunk any misconceptions about dieting. After all, is a significant concern among seniors. Let's tackle this together!

Thank you Amazing Seniors for the opportunity to educate and to share this CRUCIAL yet often-overlooked topic for seniors.

Providing a nutrition workshop through a snack party—pretty interesting, isn't it?
We are honored to serve as the dietitian advisor for Allexcel and be part of their incredible launch of a new dried-freeze yoghurt snack!

We had an absolute blast at the snack party, where we had engaging discussions about the ins and outs of smart snacking and how we can all prioritize our health while indulging in delicious treats. It was truly amazing to share tips on how Allexcel can promote their products while genuinely caring for their customers' well-being.

We delved into both the positive and not-so-positive aspects of snacking, emphasizing the importance of mindfulness when it comes to those scrumptious bites. 😋 So, let's snack smart and keep our health in check! 🌿💚

We were recently engaged to help ReU Living, a premium eldercare service provider offering post-surgery care and retirement living, to redefine their food culture. Our goal is to ensure that their clients are able to age well and recover well through intentional meal planning.

We put emphasis on:
1. Proper food portioning (ensure adequate nutrients intake)
2. Food presentation (pleasing to the eyes = encourage food intake)
3. Menu variety (nobody likes to eat the same/similar food everyday)

When designing the menu, we considered factors like dish colour (having different dishes with different colours at a meal), complementary flavours (no clashes in taste among dishes), and a mix of cuisines to keep things interesting for the clients. We want them to look forward to mealtime and enjoy their food.

How does your company approach food culture in eldercare? We are happy to schedule meetings with eldercare service providers to enhance their clients' meal time experience. Contact us @ 011 24341408 for a customised proposal.

This time, we conducted our training in a hotel room. How cool is that?

This was made possible thanks to , a luxury retirement home village located in Micasa Hotel, in the heart of KL.

We brought together the caregiving and kitchen staff to make sure we're all on the same page when it comes to food service. Both teams are crucial in providing the best care to our clients and ensuring they receive the right nutrients through their meals.

Thoughtful meal planning is an important aspect of healthy aging.

If we can't bring you to the supermarket, we bring the supermarket to you!

We were thrilled to provide a corporate wellness event for the HLB LER LUM CHEW team on a Friday night at a special restaurant. Our session offered a range of activities that allowed participants to engage in the hands-on practice of reading food labels, while also discussing practical tips for grocery shopping and learning about healthy snacking.

We understand that the number of hours spent working in the office can be long, which is why it's crucial to stock up on healthy and nutritious snacks. We were delighted to share our knowledge on nutrition with the team and are hopeful that each session we conduct will inspire participants to adopt healthy eating habits. Remember, a healthy lifestyle starts with small steps.

Special thanks to the team for the opportunity to share.

We recently tried a recipe for our clients, who operate a nursing home, called Sambal Pan-fried Fish.

Our focus was on creating healthier options by:
1. Reducing the amount of seasoning
2. Incorporating natural herbs and spices
3. Choosing a better type of fish (boneless tilapia instead of dory fish)
3. Simplifying the cooking process

Our expertise in nutrition goes hand in hand with our attention to detail in improving the quality of a dish. Let us help you to put more thoughts in creating menu and recipes that are well-received by your clients.
