CLASS TOPICS

Based on the book Your Body in Balance: The New Science of Food, Hormones, and Health by Neal Barnard, MD, FACC, this class addresses hormone-related conditions such as mood, anxiety, and depression. Dietary choices have a surprisingly powerful effect on hormones and the problems they cause. Evidence suggests that foods can help conquer moodiness and more serious mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression.
