THE IMPACT OF NUTRIOLOGY ON HUMAN NEURODEVELOPMENT: A INTEGRATIVE LITERATURE REVIEW

Introdução

Water, vitamins, minerals, proteins and carbohydrates are biomolecules essential for the functioning of the organism. In this context, it is clear that it is valid to point out that micro and macronutrients are subgroups of nutrients that are essential for an optimal functioning of the organism.

Objetivo

The aim is to describe and understand the relationship between the nutritional effects on the neurological unfolding of the human being.

Métodos

This is a qualitative and descriptive research, carried out through an integrative literature review, which aims to synthesize
results obtained in research on a particular subject/problem, systematic, organized and comprehensive.

Resultados

Pregnancy is a special phase in a woman's life and is defined by the period in which the fetus develops intrauterinely until birth.
During pregnancy, maternal nutritional demands must be in line with his needs. This is because, as based on the
references revisited, nutrition has high relevance in human neurodevelopment, being the link between several areas, such as Neurobiology and Cognitive Neuroscience. From this perspective, it is noted that significant evidence from studies carried out in humans demonstrate that the lack of nutrient intake in the intrauterine and postnatal period has an impact on these
aspects, as well as influencing later cognitive performance.

Conclusões

From the studies consulted, it was possible to verify that the Nutrologia brings with it several approaches that have a significant impact on the neurological unfolding of the human being. Your contributions — through nutritional genomics and its subdivisions (nutrigenetics, nutrigenomics and nutri-epigenetics) — have allowed Medicine to become increasingly increasingly personalized and, thus, contribute to the health-disease process, above all, towards the promotion of the quality of life of individuals.
