how does nutrition influence your mental health?

from leslie korn, phd, mph, “the good mood kitchen”

“Poor nutrition leads to and exacerbates mental illness. Optimal nutrition prevents and treats mental illness. One’s diet must be nutrient dense and tailored to the needs of the individual, who may have been missing the basic ingredients for optimal brain function since life in the womb.”
