Renowned clinical psychologist Professor Julia Rucklidge has spent decades researching the relationship between diet and mental health.
Once a sceptic, she has consistently found vitamins and minerals can improve mental health outcomes through controlled trials.
Julia is the director of Te Puna Toiora, the Mental Health and Nutrition Research Lab at the University of Canterbury, has been named in the top 100 Most Influential Women in Aotearoa New Zealand three times, and has written more than 150 publications.
This month, she was awarded the 2024 University of Canterbury Innovation Medal for her contributions to nutritional psychiatry over the last 20 years.
Julia joins Susie to talk about her latest research.
