LINKING NUTRITION
TO MENTAL HEALTH: A Scientific Exploration
RUTH LEYSE-WALLACE PHD, RD
www.RuthLeyseWallace.com
To truly live well Americans must start addressing mental health
with the same urgency as physical health. Ruth Leyse-Wallace PhD,
RD reviews scientific
research from around the world and many disciplines to demonstrate
how diet, vitamins and minerals, genetics, medications, and health
conditions influenced by nutrition can affect an individual’s
mental well-being as much as his physical well-being.
Nutrients linked by science to conditions such as schizophrenia,
depression, eating disorders, alcohol abuse, dieting, and bariatric
surgery are discussed.
Dr. Leyse-Wallace has practiced clinical dietetics for 30 years.
She earned her PhD at the University of Arizona in 1998.
