Food and Mood

How does food impact our mental health? How can we eat healthily on a budget? How can we scale up or down a recipe according to our needs? How can we adapt meals to be more nutritious? Our new course will teach you these skills and give you the opportunity to find out more about how what we eat affects how we feel.
