As a teaching professional you will have no doubt witnessed first hand the detrimental effect that high levels of sugar and fizzy drinks has on a child’s concentration and behaviour. For too long we have laboured under the misconception that food is simply fuel and that a child being ‘full’ after a meal is a good enough outcome.   The true picture is however quite different.  

In my experience, over many years as a psychologist and nutritionist, simple changes in nutrition can have profound positive effects on young people and that most children – not just children with autism, hyperactivity or behavioural problems can really benefit from optimum nutrition.  It can help sharpen up a child’s mind, ability to concentrate and mood even if they appear to be ‘doing alright’.

I have put together a free 5 easy step recommendations for parents which I hope you might be able to pass on to the parents at your school.  www.patrickholford.com/smartkids

I am speaking on 22nd April on the subject of Optimum Nutrition for your Child’s Mind and how what you feed your child has an incredible effect on their brain function and behaviour.  Along with my co-author, Deborah Colson, who specialises in children at the Brain Bio Centre, we will be dealing with issues such as developing concentration and focus, boosting IQ and creative thinking, improving reading and writing, enhancing memory and improving mood and behaviour.  There will be time allocated for Q&A to allow for specific queries.

I would be very grateful if you are able to pass this information on to any staff or parents who would interested in attending.

If you would be able to put up an A4 Seminar poster on a school notice board  that would be fantastic! Just email info@patrickholford.com with a request and we will email back a PDF of the poster.

Parents can book online on www.patrickholford.com or call our office for more information or to book a place  0208 871 2949 ext 20.

Wishing you and your kids the best of health,

Patrick Holford
