It addresses current research on nutritional influences on human neurocognitive functioning, dietary patterns in pregnancy and effects on nutrient intake in different socioeconomic groups, the role of nutrition in neurocognitive development from pregnancy through childhood, the relationship between nutrition and brain development in early life and lifelong neurological health, genomic and epigenomic aspects, nutrition as a key mediator of the impact of background variables on outcome in middle childhood, and the impact of mild iodine deficiency during pregnancy on reduced educational outcomes. Subsequent sections cover nutrition in children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorders, psychiatric disorders, and mentally ill adolescents, with discussion of iron and vitamin D deficiency, and interventions for improved cognitive function, including breakfast for improved behavior and academic performance, pure flavonoids for spatial memory performance, camel milk as an antioxidant in autism spectrum disorders, and issues in the timing of early interventions. Chapter authors are nutrition, mental health, pediatrics, and other specialists from around the world. Distributed by CRC Press, a Taylor & Francis Group.
