Event Title: Brains Under Pressure: How Nutrition Can Support Our Kids’ Mental Health
Event Description:
Can what we feed our kids really change how they feel, behave, and cope?

As Director of the Mental Health and Nutrition Research Lab at the University of Canterbury, Julia’s pioneering work has transformed global understanding of how food affects the brain, especially in children with ADHD, anxiety, and mood challenges.
With warmth, clarity, and science-backed insights, Julia will empower parents with practical ways to support their children’s mental health from the inside out. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to learn from one of New Zealand’s most influential voices in mental health.
