Navigating NeuropsychologyShow Notes
Today, we give you our discussion with Drs. Kathleen Fuchs and Tony Stringer about the Minnesota Guidelines. Kathleen and Tony have served as co-chairs of the Minnesota Update Conference Steering Committee and have been intimately involved in the process that has led to the publication of the updated training guidelines for neuropsychology. On July 1st, 2022, we released a conversation with Dr. Brad Roper on an introduction to the Minnesota Conference . That initial discussion has a lot of background about the initial conceptualization, planning, and organization of the Conference, so we suggest checking it out if you'd like more context.

This conversation explores nutritional cognitive neuroscience, an interdisciplinary field examining the bidirectional relationships among nutrition, cognition, brain health, and eating behavior. The discussion covers how dietary influences operate across biological, psychological, environmental, and sociocultural levels, including neuroplasticity, inflammation, reward processes, genetics, and access to healthy foods. It reviews emerging research on nutrient profiles, the gut–brain axis, and dietary patterns such as the Mediterranean, DASH, and MIND diets, while emphasizing that evidence for isolated supplements or "brain foods" is often limited or overstated. The conversation also highlights substantial individual variability in nutritional needs. For neuropsychologists, the central takeaway is to address nutrition as one component of broader brain health, provide measured and realistic guidance, and collaborate with qualified nutrition professionals when individualized recommendations are needed.
