At one time or another, we have all experienced mental exhaustion and brain fog, or a lack of focus, motivation and attention. Could this slump in performance be an indication that we are not fueling our brains properly? What if, something as simple as the right nutrients could ignite our brains to function at the potential we deserve. Neuroscientist Dr. Delphie Dugal-Tessier is currently the Head of Research at Staterra Inc. a nutritional and supplement R&D company where she is conducting research supported by the NRC-IRAP, OCE & NSERC.

In the emerging field of nutritional neuroscience, Dr. Dugal-Tessier is passionate about understanding how stress depletes the raw materials required for brain health (mood, cognition, learning and memory) and how this impacts performance. In addition, she is no stranger to competitive sports. In 2007, she competed on the Canadian mogul freestyle ski team and now trains, teaches and competes in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

As a mother of two, an entrepreneur, a competitor and a woman in science, Dr. Dugal-Tessier knows all too well the challenges and struggles our brain faces on a daily basis and how this can affect mental wellness, happiness and productivity. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
