Effect of supplementation with methyl-donor nutrients on neurodevelopment and cognition: considerations for future research

Abstract excerpt

Pregnancy represents a critical period in fetal development, such that the prenatal environment can, in part, establish a lifelong trajectory of health or disease for the offspring. Poor nutrition (macro- or micronutrient deficiencies) can adversely affect brain development and significantly increase offspring risk for metabolic and neurological disease development.
