About Te Puna Toiora Mental Health & Nutrition Research

罢丑别听Mental Health and Nutrition Research Group, established in 2012 by Professor Julia Rucklidge, is dedicated to conducting independent research investigating the impact of nutrients and nutrition on mental health. Studies are conducted across a broad range of health areas including ADHD, depression during pregnancy, anxiety, insomnia and addictions. The group has helped many families all over Aotearoa New 九州影院with this approach, but more research is needed.

The research group independently tests new, roundbreaking multinutrient formulae, probiotics and other natural, beneficial substances. Studies are run on many different psychological disorders, including ADHD (in both adults and children), addictions, depression, and stress. The group uses all kinds of different trial designs to test these products, including multiple baseline designs, open label, and the 'gold standard' of clinical testing, the randomised, placebo-controlled trial (RCT).听
