This webinar is free and open to the public.

The complex interplay of what we choose to eat and why, and the influence this has on our mental and physical health is often presented as a simple equation of eat this, not that. Research into the gut microbiome, with consideration of socioeconomic status and existing nutrition knowledge, informs a more nuanced approach. In this webinar, participants will explore the intersection between food, mood, socioeconomic status, and nutrition knowledge. Learn strategies to help your clients find balance in a complicated foodscape so that they can support their optimal mental and physical health outcomes without guilt. 

In this webinar you will: 

• Gain insight into the concept of foodscape
• Explore the complexities of eating for physical and mental health
• Learn about the impact of food intake on mood and mental health outcomes
• Identify concrete strategies for balancing food and mood within any budget
