About the webinar:
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) refers to the range of problems caused by prenatal exposure to alcohol. Evidence strongly suggests that FASD can cause physical defects, intellectual or cognitive disabilities in the offspring.
In this free webinar, Melanie will discuss the latest research on FASD, including its causes, risk factors, long-term consequence and impact of nutrition. She will also explore the challenges of diagnosing and managing FASD, as well as nutritional strategies for prevention.
