Feeding the Brain: How Foods Affect Children SPH 10

Of the innumerable weighty decisions parents make in raising a child, few will have as great an impact as what they feed him. While parents seem to be flooded with information about the benefits and hazards of various foods to their child's physical health, little attention has been focused on an equally significant issue: how foods affect a child's behavior. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Connors reveals startling new evidence on the critical impact foods can have on a child's behavior and even I.Q. Recent scientific research suggests that perhaps some of our more enduring assumptions about children's nutritional needs, as well as other more recently embraced practices, may need revision. For example, some carbohydrates, such as a bowl of pasta alone, which have become fashionable among many active, health-conscious adults, may not always be the wisest choice for children. What may be healthy for adults may not necessarily be healthy for children. Dr. Conners sifts through the most recent available information and responds to the many questions parents confront daily regarding their child's nutrition.
