About Dr. Holton:

Dr. Kathleen Holton is a nutritional neuroscientist, co-appointed in the Departments of Health Studies and Neuroscience, whose research examines the negative effects of dietary excitotoxins on neurological symptoms, as well as the positive protective effects of 
certain micronutrients on the brain. The most common dietary excitotoxin exposures in the US are from food additives. Dr. Holton’s research is exploring the beneficial effects of removing these additives, while optimizing the nutrient composition of the diet in order to treat neurological conditions characterized by excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. Her work aims to optimize the use of food as medicine in neurological treatment.

Phase 2 of building mental toughness 

As the great Viktor Frankl noted: the last of human freedoms is choice. You have a choice in so many aspects of your sporting life. One of the key areas is choosing the internal voice you feed or listen to. Identify them, recognize them and then feed to one that leads you to success.
