WEBINAR: Nutrition and mental health in athletes

On Wednesday 9 July, we ran a PD event in partnership with the APS's  College of Sport and Exercise Psychologists (CoSEP) and Sports Dietitians Australia (SDA), featuring Sport & Exercise Psychologist, Ashleigh Olive, and Accredited Practising Dietitian, Dr Meghan Hockey, as they explored the link between nutrition and mental health in athletes.

They explored the link between nutrition and mental health in athletes, including the role of nutrition in mental disorders, practical applications of nutritional psychiatry, the relationship between energy availability and mental health, and early intervention strategies targeting behaviour change.

The session was expertly facilitated by psychologist Damien Stewart and sports dietitian Lauren Stribley.
