Event Details

Learn about the connection between diet and mental health with lifestyle nutrition expert and author Vicki Shanta Retelny, RDN. Explore the science behind food and mood, such as the gut-brain connection, key neurotransmitters, and the role of inflammation and oxidative stress in mood disorders. You'll learn about the nutrients that support mental well-being, foods that negatively impact mood, and lifestyle factors that enhance the food and mood connection.

Everyone who attends will have the opportunity to win a copy of Vicki's book.
