Great article on how processed foods raises the risk for depression - especially as we age. The correlation is between "bad" carbs, or processed foods. There is another study showing that "good" carbs, like those found in MemoryMeals recipes help stave off depression and ignite serotonin - the good mood hormone.

Lower the Risk of Dementia Among Your Residents By As Much As 53%
MemoryMeals™ is based on the MIND Diet, a research-based nutrition plan shown to elevate cognitive health with simple changes in diet and lifestyle. Developed by researchers at Rush University in Chicago, the MIND diet centers around brain-healthy ingredients such as fish, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and nuts, plus the addition of leafy greens, berries, and other ingredients specifically targeted to cognitive health. The result: the MIND diet has been shown to reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease by as much as 53% and slow cognitive decline in senior by as much as 6.5 years(1).

The beauty of MemoryMeals™ is that it seamlessly combines the benefits of the MIND diet into your community’s operational plan, integrating the goals of your culinary, activities and marketing departments by delivering monthly menu plans tightly coordinated with brain-stimulating games and activities, as well as educational marketing messages to keep your residents engaged.
