But what we eat also plays a powerful role in our overall well-being, and yes, that means what we (and our families) eat greatly impacts our mental health. Increasing scientific research shows that nutrition and mental health are deeply connected, and that eating patterns, nutrient intake, and even the state of our gut can influence mood, stress, cognition, and overall emotional balance.
