From Ancient Diets to Modern Minds
The Role of Micronutrients in Brain Development and Function
AvHans Konrad Biesalski
Inbunden, Engelska, 2025
397 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book explores the evolution of the human brain, highlighting the critical role of diet, particularly micronutrients, in shaping our cognitive development. By examining the evolutionary path of our ancestors, it sheds light on how dietary practices have influenced brain growth and function. This provides valuable insights into modern health and lifestyle choices. Thus, the book makes an essential contribution to evolutionary medicine and to our understanding of the relationship between evolution and health.The chapters cover topics such as the importance of micronutrients in brain development in the context of evolution and cognitive development in children, mental decline in the elderly (dementia), ADHD, Hidden Hunger, and obesity. Special attention is given to the impact of environmental change on dietary evolution and the role of the hippocampus in processing sensory and ecological information. The book offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between diet and cognitive health, and the author presents a strong case that nutritional quality, rather than quantity, has been a driving force in the evolution of Homo sapiens and the human brain. Nutritional quality continues to play an important role in brain development and function, as demonstrated by various examples. Throughout the book, complex concepts are explained with simple, colorful illustrations. References to implications for modern humans complement the main content.By exploring the links between ancient dietary practices and modern health, the book invites readers to rethink their approach to diet and lifestyle and offers practical insights for maintaining cognitive health throughout life. As such, it is intended for anyone interested in these topics, whether you are a scientist or an interested layperson.

Sustainable Nutrition in a Changing World

Inbunden, Engelska, 2017

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book is the first of its kind to tackle in detail the nutritional requirements of the industrialized, so-called developed world. It discusses the link between socio-economic status and food security, focusing especially on the relationship between income and food security in different age groups. The authors calculate the actual levels of essential micronutrients delivered by current dietary patterns, identifying important shortfalls in the provision of key micronutrients, and elucidate the public health consequences of nutrition insecurity. Finally, the authors discuss future approaches for ensuring nutrition security on the basis of three pillars: access, availability and nutritional value. The approaches advocated in this ground-breaking publication will allow all people, irrespective of age and social status, to have access to a safe and nutritious diet. Key stakeholders such as legislators, government, academia and industry, as well as consumers themselves, all have important roles to play in making this a reality.

Hidden Hunger

Hidden Hunger is an increasing problem even in developed countries, whose potential negative consequences on long-term health are often overlooked and underestimated. Chronic malnutrition is at the core of the global hunger challenge facing science, politics, and economics. In plain language and with moving examples, Hans K. Biesalski describes how hidden hunger affects human health long before malnutrition becomes obvious. Worldwide, over one third of deaths among children under 5 years of age is associated with malnutrition. As poverty is the main reason for hidden hunger, addressing this dire challenge requires long-term policies. Land grabbing and climate change seriously counteract a lot of efforts to overcome hidden hunger. This book is a highly impressive call to action. Investment in agriculture and in particular in small-scale farmers to improve subsistence farming are among the approaches suggested to reach a sustainable solution. The author is head of the department of biochemistry and nutrition and managing director of the Food Security Center at the University of Hohenheim, Germany. He is a member of numerous advisory and expert groups for the World Health Organization (WHO), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the Global Forum on Food Security and Nutrition.

Chancen für einen Ausstieg aus dem Hungerkarussell?Hinter jedem an Hunger sterbenden Kind stehen zehn weitere, die chronisch unterernährt sind. Sie leiden an verborgenem Hunger. Er zwingt vor allem Mütter und Kinder in ein Hungerkarussell, aus dem es oftmals keinen Ausstieg mehr gibt. Satt sein ist nicht genug. Die Schale Reis oder Mais reicht nicht aus, die vielfältigen Bedürfnisse des menschlichen Organismus, vor allem heranwachsender Kinder, zu sichern. Es ist der verborgene Hunger, der die geistigen und körperlichen Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten der Kinder einschränkt oder beschneidet. Bisher wird dieser Hidden Hunger, die unzureichende und damit chronische Mangelernährung, kaum wahrgenommen. In einer ausgewogenen Ernährung sollten alle essenziellen Nährstoffe, also nicht nur Energie, enthalten sein. Entscheidend für eine gesunde Entwicklung ist die ausreichende Versorgung mit allen lebenswichtigen Mikronährstoffen wie Vitaminen, Mineralien und Spurenelementen.Armut ist der wesentliche Grund für diese chronische Mangelernährung und die Ursache für die einseitige Nahrungsmittelversorgung. Preisschwankungen für Grundnahrungsmittel, wie für Reis, Weizen und Mais, verschlechtern die Versorgung. Die Kosten für Lebensmittel erhöhen sich zudem durch die unkritische Verwendung dieser Grundnahrungsmittel als Rohstoffe für die Herstellung von Bioethanol oder Biodiesel. Nicht zuletzt tragen der Klimawandel und die daraus resultierenden Missernten zu einer Verschärfung der Situation bei.Verschiedene Lösungsvorschläge, wie Bioanreicherung, genetische Verfahren und Förderung der kleinen Landwirte werden auf ihre Nachhaltigkeit hin diskutiert. Als oberstes Ziel gilt es, die Armut zu beseitigen und so den vor allem auf dem Land lebenden Menschen wieder eine Perspektive zu geben.
