Chef and psychiatrist Dr Uma Naidoo reveals the connections between gut health and anxiety, offering solutions-focused advice on what to eat to relieve anxiety.

We’re in the middle of a global anxiety epidemic. But when it comes to fighting anxiety, you have more control than you think: the power is at the end of your fork.

Held in partnership with MindHealth360, this livestream conversation between psychiatrist Dr Uma Naidoo and Kirkland Newman will give you the tools to take back control, walking you through how an understanding of how the brain works and a diet that will create a strong foundation for mental health will allow you to overcome your anxiety.

Food can be an indispensable tool in improving mental health, and all of us can combine healthy ingredients into delicious, nourishing, anxiety-busting meals. Here, Dr Naidoo will reveal the anxiety superfoods and the foods we should avoid, as well as providing mouth-watering recipes, helping us become immune to anxiety.

This event is presented in partnership with MindHealth360, a free, global resource for integrative mental health and functional medicine psychiatry that revolutionises the way mental health is approached in the mainstream.
