A major component of a client's clinical profile is diet, which can greatly influence mental well-being. For example, dietary changes can alleviate anxious and depressive symptoms. But few therapists have any nutrition training and many don't know where to begin. This book provides an essential introductory primer.

Reviews

Nutrition Essentials for Mental Health is an absolute must-read for all mental health professionals, and highly recommended for anyone wanting to understand the connection between what we eat and how our minds function. Dr. Korn brings two crucial concepts to the table: the importance of the diet of our ancestors and the significance of biochemical individuality. This book will change lives!--Gray L. Graham, BA, NTP, President and Founder of the Nutritional Therapy Association (4/14/2016 12:00:00 AM)

Leslie Korn has written the essential book for mental health care providers. As I read Nutrition Essentials for Mental Health, I was astonished at the level of detail. It is engagingly written and fascinatingly encyclopedic in its reach. The delicious recipes alone provide a pathway to health. This book should be a bible for the mental health field.--Peggy Knickerbocker, James Beard Award-winning cookbook author (4/14/2016 12:00:00 AM)
