Food and a Child’s Brain

Food impacts how well a child’s brain works, affecting their moods and abilities. In these illustrations, you see how in a child’s brain junk food can cause neurotransmitters, which pass along information, to function improperly. Smart foods, however, allow information to be processed correctly and help the child function at their optimal level.brain-cell3

A lack of good nutrition has been shown to have a dramatic effect on children’s ability to concentrate, their fine motor skills, as well as their overall attitude, behavior and performance. Many children, even those who do not look overweight, can be suffering from Nutrition Deficit Disorder (NDD), which contributes to ADHD, developmental delays, depression, learning disabilities, OCD, allergic diseases, cardiovascular disease, GERD, infectious diseases and inflammatory diseases (dermatitis, colitis, bronchitis, etc.).
