Westport Family Counseling will be hosting a Professional Networking Lunch and Presentation on Food and Mood by Vicki Kobliner, MD RDN,  on Wednesday August 13th from 12-1:30pm.

Vicki Kobliner is a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist with years of expertise in applying a functional approach to nutrition. She develops individualized plans for clients which are designed to promote wellness, prevent disease and rebalance underlying nutritional impairments.

Nutrition is an often overlooked component of managing emotional health, but diet and digestive wellness have a powerful effect on mood.  Consider this:

• more neurotransmitters are produced in the digestive tract than in the brain
• certain nutrients have been shown to chemically and physiologically alter the structure of the brain
• substances such as gluten have been linked to schizophrenia, and other psychiatric disorders

The value of nutritional therapy for emotional well being is clear.

Please join us and other local professionals as Vicki Kobliner MD RDN helps clarify the relationship of food to mood.  Lunch will be provided.
