个人简介

After an undergraduate training in Psychology I studied Biochemical Pharmacology and since then have examined the association between aspects of biology and psychological functioning. For the last 25 years I have used diet to influence brain chemistry and hence behaviour with the objectives of developing either food items, or making dietary recommendations, that will facilitate health, mood and cognitive functioning. I have published over 200 research publications and over the last 15 years have received more than a hundred invitations to speak in over 25 countries.
