Is My Diet Making Me Depressed? What Can I Do?
A Free Public Lecture by
Gretchen K. Vannice, M.S., R.D.
Is there something fishy about our diet and the brain? Can depression and
mood disorders be related to our diet? Research shows there is less
depression in countries that consume more omega3s.
Good fats make a difference and getting them is easier than you may think.
Learn the evidence behind omega3 fatty acids in depression and mood
disorders. Omega3 fatty acids: what they are, how to get enough of the right ones; learn dietary intake recommendations, based on your health status. This talk will review practical steps you can take and how to read labels. There will be time for questions and discussion. No registration necessary.
Gretchen Vannice, registered dietitian, is a Health Educator and Nutrition
Consultant specializing in omega3s. She has coordinated clinical research
trials in the US and Europe, is a public speaker, published author and
international trainer. Ms. Vannice is Chair of the International Science
committee for the Global Organization of EPA & DHA Omega3, an Executive board member of the Omega3 Learning Consortium and recently published an Editorial in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association
