Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 What I find really frightening is that scientists are just starting to study the effects of fats on the brain, considering that the brain is 60% fat. It may be more frightening when they start looking at the effects of trans fats on the brain. Maybe it will explain why attention deficit disorder, autism, cerebral palsy and other brain diseases have been on the rise. Tony === 'Frightening data' Looking at the effects of Omega-3 intake on 9,000 mothers and their children, the team found mothers with the lowest intake of the essential fatty acid had children with a verbal IQ six points lower than the average. While those with the highest consumption of mackerel and sardines and other sources of Omega-3 had children, at age three-and-a-half, with the best measures of fine-motor performance, researchers said.
