Getting enough fish, whole grains, including bread, is important for the formation of the child's body and its intellectual development, experts say. The University of Otago is studying how nutrition can affect the IQ. A low one, for example, is registered with increased consumption of margarine, which raises many questions for medicine. It contains high levels of harmful trans fatty acids and is most likely due to side effects.
Of course, its moderate use, against the background of regular intake of fruits and sources of fiber, with sufficiently active physical activity will not give such disturbing results. In addition to fish and cereals, which are recommended by nutritionists in childhood, according to them, breakfast should not be missed.
Another interesting finding is that a certain amount of alcohol during pregnancy is associated with a higher IQ of children than with absolute restriction. Of course, doctors warn that the exact limit is unknown, and the harmful effect is not to be underestimated.
