CNP is conducting a survey to help CNP better understand current perspectives and needs of the nutrition–mental health connection in education, research, and clinical practice.
Completing this 5-minute survey will help us identify barriers to collaboration between psychological and nutritional sciences and guide future program development, research priorities, and educational initiatives. Your responses are confidential and will play an important role in shaping resources that better serve our community. Thank you for sharing your voice!

The Center for Nutritional Psychology is consolidating research from around the world to help us better understand the relationship between maternal dietary intake and both maternal and infant/child mood, behavior, and mental health. Explore the studies in our DMMH Research Library below and see what the research says about pregnancy and cravings, the relationship between post-partum mental health and diet, and much more. The DMMH Research Library is curated by CNP Content Developer Stephanie Greunke, MS, RD, CPT, PMH-C. Nutrition always has a very strong effect on our well-being and energy. And cooking for mental health is a new trend that more and more people are using.
Areas of future development for this library will include the implications of nutritional protocols, micronutrients, non-pharmacological therapies, blood sugar regulation, immune system regulation, gut health, and the gut-brain axis.
We are capturing the world’s research exploring the diet-mental health relationship (DMHR) and the growing field of nutritional psychology (NP)! If you have published a study related to the DMHR/NP, or have knowledge of a study you would like to see included in the Nutritional Psychology Research Libraries (NPRLs), please let us know by submitting the study title and its link below. We will consider all submissions and determine proper placement within the Research Libraries. Thanks for helping us to make this library grow!
