This session highlights the powerful role of diet in shaping a person’s health, behavior, and neurological function. It emphasizes how food influences inflammation, gut health, and brain function- and why nutrition often has a greater impact than supplements or therapies.  It explores the gut-brain-immune connection, showing how disruptions in the microbiome- from antibiotics, processed foods, and environmental toxins- can contribute to food sensitivities and developmental challenges. Practical strategies are shared, including anti-inflammatory nutrition, elimination diets, and individualized approaches.  What You’ll Learn: 

• Why is diet a powerful intervention for health and development 

• How the gut-brain-immune connection impacts behavior and mood
