Is There a ‘Right Diet’ for People with Down syndrome? Workshop with Nutritionist, Nicky Clark

What should people with Down Syndrome eat? Should they eat differently to everyone else? What does that extra chromosome do?

During this 90-minute session, Nicky Clark will explore the research on diet, nutrition and Down Syndrome and explain some practical and simple diet changes that you may want to consider incorporating into the diet of your loved one with Down Syndrome. This talk offers a way to build capacity and knowledge for family members, carers and support workers. There will be an opportunity to ask questions at the end. 

Nicky is a Nutritional Therapist working in Sydney’s CBD. She sees clients privately for one-to-one consultations, runs online programmes throughout the year, gives talks and presentations, and offers meal planning services.
