2026 Workshop Programme

Anxiety-related disorders are increasingly common in nutrition and functional medicine practice. This focused 30-minute workshop explores how dietary patterns, key nutrients, and evidence-informed supplementation influence the physiological drivers of anxiety, including stress response dysregulation, blood sugar instability, gut'brain axis function, and inflammation. The session provides practical guidance on targeted nutrient and supplement strategies to support neurotransmitter balance and nervous system resilience. Lifestyle factors, including simple vagal-supportive techniques, will be outlined to enhance the effectiveness of nutritional interventions in clinical practice.
