It is widely understood that lifestyle interventions are effective in the management and prevention of non-communicable diseases including cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and respiratory disease. Increasingly, research is showing that this is also true for mental health and associated physical comorbidities.

Major Depressive Disorder is the leading cause of disability globally. Concerns surrounding mental health are the most common reason patients visit their general practitioner. Yet, research suggests that medical practitioners do not feel adequately resourced to provide lifestyle support to their patients.

Health practitioners including GPs, counsellors, dietitians, psychologists, psychiatrists and nurses all play a crucial role in supporting the mental health outcomes of patients by instigating conversations around lifestyle.

This webinar provides an evidence-based, introductory overview of the role of Lifestyle Medicine and Nutritional Psychiatry for mental health care providers and general practitioners.

After this 1-hour webinar you will be able to:

  • Describe the pillars of lifestyle medicine leading to improved mental health outcomes including nutrition, exercise, sleep and human connection
  • Understand the latest evidence for lifestyle interventions in mental health and comorbid conditions and medication optimisation.
  • Have a practical understanding of the role of nutrition in lifestyle-based mental health care that you can begin using immediately.

Whether you’re new to lifestyle medicine or already applying it in practice, this session is designed to inspire and empower.
