Foods and Mood
Thursday, October 9, 2025 5:00pm to 7:00pm

Emerging research shows that what we eat can play a powerful role in lifting our mood and supporting mental well-being. A plant-based diet has been linked to improvements in depression, anxiety, and overall emotional balance, as well as physical health. One reason may be that animal-based foods—such as meat, dairy, and eggs—can promote inflammation and disrupt brain chemistry, while fruits, vegetables, and other plant foods provide natural anti-inflammatory benefits.

Another key factor is fiber: plant-based foods are rich in it, helping to nourish healthy gut bacteria that produce compounds known to support brain function and emotional health.

Along with regular exercise and quality sleep, choosing a plant-based lifestyle offers a natural, holistic way to feel your best.

In this class, you’ll discover delicious, mood-boosting recipes, sample a variety of dishes, and learn simple strategies to bring more of these foods into your everyday meals.
