Nutritional Neuroscience

Nutritional neuroscience is an area of study which focuses on the impact which diverse constituents of diet have on neurochemistry, cognition, behavior and neurobiology. A few of such diet components are minerals, protein and vitamins. Minerals such as iron, zinc, copper and manganese can impact the development of the brain based on their deficiency or excess. The deficiency and overload of iron has the potential to disrupt the central nervous system function. Deficiency of zinc can lead to various disorders such as anorexia, depression and memory impairment while it excess can hinder the absorption of copper. The imbalance of vitamins in a person's body can also lead to degenerative and developmental diseases. This book is a compilation of research papers that discuss the most vital concepts and developments in the field of nutritional neuroscience. It consists of contributions made by international experts. This book will help the readers in keeping pace with the rapid changes in this field.
