- What are the foods that help us regulate stress and emotions?
- Is everything we eat the same?
- How does our body work?
- What are the metabolic pathways activated by food?
- Why is it so difficult to go on a diet?

- And much more
⇨ 1. Focus specifically on what you need to know about each issue
⇨ 2. Offer a balance between a whole-picture view and focus sessions on specific issues
⇨ 3. Fully understand the mechanisms that actually link what we eat with our immune, nervous, endocrine systems and all other systems
⇨ 4. Understand how to change your diet to manage responses to stress, emotions, thinking skills – directly and indirectly
⇨ 5. Take an integrated and multi-disciplinary approach to understanding two-way mind-body mechanisms by identifying the key role played by what we eat each day
⇨ A comprehensive overview
⇨ The worst mistake: confusing nutrition with dieting
⇨ An integrated approach
⇨ Introduction to the module
⇨ Chronic inflammation and psychological, physical and mind-body issues
⇨ Mechanisms in action
⇨ INFLAMMATION AND THE BRAIN
⇨ General overview
⇨ Issues with pasta, pizza, sugar, fructose and other refined CARBOHYDRATES
⇨ OILS and FATS: an area to shed light upon (starting with Omega 3s and 6s)
⇨ A targeted plan: which omega fats to choose and in aid of which objectives
⇨ The issue with TRANS FATS and suitable alternatives: OLIVE OIL, BUTTER and COCONUT butter (debunking old myths)
⇨ GLUTAMMATE and cerebral excitement (with implications ranging from anxiety to learning issues)
⇨ Introduction to the module
⇨ How our body works
⇨ Two different routes of metabolism
⇨ The sugar-led metabolic route and inflammation
⇨ The fat metabolism route and the cell repair
⇨ The key role of insulin
⇨ The never-ending meal
⇨ Disadvantages to eat so many carbohydrates and proteins
⇨ Disadvantages to eat so many times a day
⇨ Health risks
⇨ Pathological conditions associated with inflammatory process: gastritis, colitis, asthma, cystitis, food intolerance, celiac disease, endometriosis, lupus, dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes and even more serious conditions such as tumours, neurodegenerative diseases, attention deficit disorders, ADHD, learning difficulties, depression and so on.
⇨ Practical suggestions to overcome the problem
⇨ Anabolism is inflammatory process while Katabolism is an anti-inflammatory process
⇨ The strategies to shift from anabolism to katabolism and reap all the advantages
⇨ Fats: energy for mind and body
⇨ Fats katabolism
⇨ Not everything we eat is the same: carbohydrates, proteins and fats all activate different metabolic pathways
⇨ How to adopt a ketogenic diet
⇨ How to start intermittent fasting
⇨ Ketone advantages
By registering now you’ll gain immediate access to all previous instalments of the programme.
In the coming months, according to the Integrative Sciences HUB structure- of which this course is an integral part- the following modules will be added:
⇨ From nutrition to epigenetics
⇨ Energy metabolism, from the mitochondrion right through to muscle strength
⇨ Nutrition cycles: the window of opportunity for nutrition, fasting, chrono diets and other options seen as targeted strategic choices in aid of your specific objectives
⇨ How to use flavour to change nutritional, but also cognitive habits, mind-sets and emotional responsiveness
⇨ Cooking as a philosophy of life
⇨ And much more…
How to manage mood, emotions and stress responses via gut microbiome moderation
What to eat, what to avoid, key probiotics, targeted supplements and lots of practical suggestions to rebalance the gut and reduce anxiety, stress, depression and dysfunctional behaviour
The course presents the latest updates and consensus among the main experts and authoritative institutes. We only present data that has been collected and validated according to the most stringent parameters.
Our approach is ‘neutral’: it doesn’t support any particular diet or theory, but reveals the scientific mechanisms at the heart of the different issues.
All this is presented in a pragmatic and practical manner in order to help make informed personal choices or to integrate these aspects in your professional life.
“At last someone that ‘dares’ explain everything, regardless of trends and ideology. This way everything is clear and easy to link together with other issues. I, for example, have added these to my consultancy programmes. The connections to the other HUB modules are very useful and link theoretical focus sessions with practical techniques. Fantastic! Even more so, if you consider how cost effective it is!! Thank you so much, you’re really special!!”

Sara has a Degree in Nutrition Sciences and is a Nutrition and Health expert that focuses on the ways that food, nutrition and physical activity affect our health, emotional responses, mood and cognitive abilities. She is co-founder of the Association for Integrative Sciences and of the Real Way of Life research and training centres where she works as a consultant, researcher and trainer.
She developed the Emotional-Metabolic Switch model to intervene on inflammatory conditions of the gut, brain and, at the same time, on energy metabolism and the efficiency of mind-body interaction.
Her work slots into the Change Switches theory starting from initial cell responses (metabolic energy, epigenetic marking, inflammatory cascade) and is applied right throughout, across various levels of complexity that influence initial adaptation responses (from hunger to a sense of void), to brain networks at the heart of emotions and self-image (both physical and relating to identity), to self-regulation and primary interpersonal relation models (tolerance towards waiting, nurture, sharing etc.).
Sara researches and evaluates the reciprocal influence between nutrition, cell responses, epigenetics, responses to pain, management of emotions and behaviour.
Sara coordinates nutrition and wellbeing projects both at individual clinical level and in their overall social implication aspects, presenting her findings each year to an international audience.
