The document discusses a study that examined the relationship between omega-3 fatty acid intake and executive function in healthy older adults. The study found that higher omega-3 intake, as measured by nutrient biomarkers, was associated with better performance on several measures of executive function, including tasks involving switching, scanning, number sequencing, and motor speed. Higher intake of both plant-derived and marine-derived omega-3 fatty acids showed benefits, suggesting omega-3s may help preserve certain aspects of cognitive functioning as people age.

Lead, mercury, and other endocrine-disrupting chemicals lead to chronic fatigue by affecting thyroid function, although routine thyroid tests may not always help diagnose this condition. So it's no wonder that chronic fatigue is at the forefront of health problems in the world today. Endocrine disorders also lead to memory loss, Parkinson's disease and autoimmune diseases.

Depression is an insidious issue in the US and elsewhere. Lifestyle habits that are very different from our ancestral environment may be to blame, and one particularly problematic area is food choice. Depressive symptoms share much in common with the adaptive features of sickness behavior, which is functional when operating in an environment of ancestrally normal immune stressor. Modern diets likely activate the immune system (primarily the inflammatory response) and induce the cascade of adaptive responses that collective make up sickness behavior. Due to their similarities, these may then diagnosed as depression. In this talk, I discuss the links among diet, depression, and inflammation, as well as highlighting some specific dietary components that contribute to this response.

Introduction
Iodine is one of the three key micronutrient for which
deficiency is highlighted as a major public health issue by the
World Health Organisation, and the most preventable cause
of mental retardation and brain damage (1). While the role of
iodine in neurodevelopment has become better understood in
early life, there is little evidence available regarding the lifelong
impact of iodine on brain function. European countries are
usually assumed to have sufficient dietary iodine intake, but the
UK has been classified as insufficient (2, 3). This is a particular
threat to pregnant women and their offspring, since insufficient
early exposure to iodine leads to blunted mental capacity.
Indeed, the offspring of mothers taking part in the ALSPAC
study (www.bristol.ac.uk/alspac/) had lower IQ at age 8 if
maternal iodine in pregnancy had been in the lowest quartile
(4). Childhood IQ is known to be one of the key determinants
of later life cognition and wellbeing, and is associated with
mortality, morbidity and frailty in old age (5).
Iodine is obtained mainly through the diet, with no ongoing
iodine-fortification programme in the UK. The main sources
of iodine in the British diet are milk and dairy products,
as well as fish and seafood. While cross-sectional surveys
revealed mild insufficiency in the population (1), recent
studies have highlighted that most women struggle to reach the
recommended iodine daily intake (150 µg/day), a recommended
intake that increases during pregnancy to 250 µg/day (6).
Iodine deficiency, mainly in children and young adults, has
been suggested to cause certain brain proteins to be down-
regulated in particular brain regions, anterior commissure
axons and mRNA expression to be reduced, and dendrite size
to be altered resulting in potential premature cell apoptosis.
Additionally, iodine deficiency may cause a reduction in
cerebellar cell size and decreased myelination throughout the
central nervous system (7), and, therefore, may be related to
brain atrophy and brain white matter damage. Altogether, such
changes are likely to affect cognitive functions. Preservation
of mental / cognitive capacities is key in having a healthy long

In this presentation, Dr. Cady builds on previous lectures dealing with anti-oxidants and vitamin, mineral, and soil depletion to add discussions of vinpocetine and Bacopa monieri, as well as a discussion of the Medhya Rasayana approach from centuries old Aryuvedic practice in India. There is an emphasis on obtaining solid multivitamin, multi-mineral, and antioxidant support. References for two supplements lines (Physiologics and Metagenics) are given.
This presentation attached are of ownership of Justin Brooks and the Exercise and Sports Science Program of the University of Memphis. It discusses how exercise with focus on visual- reactive stimuli can be highly beneficial when training the geriatric population. Research gathered showed large increases in confidence, as well as slight increases in muscle strength, balance, agility, and a drop in reaction time.

Until recently nutrition and various other lifestyle factors were predominantly in the focus of medical disciplines like cardiology, endocrinology or gastroenterology. As mental disorders are multifactorial diseases and as such are complex, emerging evidence suggests that nutrition, exercise and sleep also play an important role in the aetiology, progression and treatment of mental disorders.
