Key topics covered in depth include: -caloric restriction benefit the brain and retard aging; -effects of dietary antioxidants on brain function and aging; -developmental and function consequences of different dietary fatty acids; -biochemical links between dietary folic acid and psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders; -effects of nutritional deficit during early development and behavior disorders later in life; -neurochemical basis of the benefits of widely used dietary supplements including creatine and Gingko biloba; -contribution of dietary toxins such as metals and pesticides to neurological disorders.
