Dr Ayoub will be drawing on his 25 years’ experience in the biological, psychological and medical disciplines to explain how nutritional deficits have been linked to a number of mental health issues. He will speak about the role of nutrition in mental conditions, particularly touching on disorders such as depression, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and autism, and chat about why some may wish to modify their diet and/or augment it with certain vitamins.
