520 3 # |a This book illustrates how food and the act of eating touches the everyday lives of individuals, including nearly every aspect of human behaviour and development. It assists in recognizing the associations that current scientific evidence concerning nutrition and behaviour suggests are likely true, given the current understanding of work that bridges the two topics. Particular topics discussed include: concepts and models in nutrition and behaviour; research and analytical methods; direct and short-term effects of nutrition on behaviour (brain-behaviour connections and neurotransmitters); effects of chronic and acute undernutrition; the effect of vitamins, minerals and dietary supplements on mental performance and behaviour; bio-behavioural and psychosocial influences on nutrition; dietary sugar and behaviour; caffeine, the methylxanthines and behaviour; alcohol and brain function; eating disorder syndromes; and behavioural aspects of overweight and obesity.
