This is a group that grew out of a recent "Food as Medicine" conference
in Berkeley, CA. The objective is to provide a forum so that psychologists
or those who are in psychologically related fields, who are incoporating or
considering the incoporation of nutritional modalities, can have a place to
discuss how they are bringing issues around food and supplementation into their
psychological work.

Food not only has a powerful capacity to affect the functioning of the brain
and what is generally thought of as psychological symptomology, or psychic
disturbance, but it is also a deeply intimate issue. This is a group for those
of us who have concluded that transformation, whether it be individuals or
institutions such as schools, prisons or juvenile halls, necessitates working
at both ends of this relationship.

[Well, that's my attempt at a mission statement. I'm not married to it, so
please tell me how you'd like it modified!]
