THE CHOICES YOU MAKE AFFECT
YOUR HEALTH
Nutrition Education Consultant, Mitra Rash (BA,
MA, Diploma Nutrition) believes that diet is the
first line of defense against illness and is a
powerful tool for sustained health, recovery and
positive mental attitudes. The relationship between
nutrition and a healthy lifestyle is critical.
Mitra therefore teaches workshops on organic/vegetarian
foods, emotional eating/diet, healthful cooking,
international healthful menus and other relevant
topics. In addition, she specializes in offering
nutritional counseling to families who have children
with special needs and addresses the relationship
between diet and conditions such as Autism, Asperger’s
Syndrome, ADHD, and other Learning Disabilities
