Mental Health and Nutrition

Mental Health and Nutrition

In this course, I'll take you on a journey exploring nutrition's essential role in our mental health. After more than a decade of research into the role of nutrients in mental health problems, such as hyperactivity, insomnia, anxiety, and stress, I and other researchers around the world have discovered that nutrition plays an essential role in how we feel.
