Evidence suggests certain dietary patterns containing specific nutrients can reduce symptoms of some of the most common mental health disorders.

RDs play an important role in treating clients and patients with mental health issues. In 2016, mental illness of any type affected 44.7 million adults aged 18 and older.1 What has made matters worse is the COVID-19 pandemic, which has upended the lives of Americans and profoundly has affected the state of their mental health.

Thinking about belief systems and preferences that differ from your own? Imagine the human brain as a mansion.

FROM THE EDITOR

When reflecting on deeply held and widely divergent belief systems and individual preferences that feel foreign and unusual to me, I am reminded of one of my favorite metaphors for our different experiences of the world. Imagine a mansion with 100 rooms, each decorated in a unique style, setting it distinctly apart from the other 99. The north side of the mansion faces an established and mature forest, the east faces a rocky and turbulent ocean shore, the west overlooks a rugged and endless mountain range, and the south stretches over a grassy expanse with wildflowers and low growing brush.
