Summary

Background: Adequate levels of beneficial nutrients are important for neurodevelopment. Although, nutrients are ingested in combination, considering nutrients as a mixture has not been studied with respect to health, such as neurodevelopment.

Objective: To examine the impact of prenatal and childhood nutrition mixtures on neurodevelopment.

Design: Participants included mother-child pairs in the Programming Research in Obesity, Growth Environment and Social Stress (PROGRESS) prospective birth cohort in Mexico City. Prenatal and child nutrition profiles were assessed among 65 and 329 children respectively by analyzing components of a food frequency questionnaire. Child neurodevelopmental outcomes at 4-6 years of age were measured using the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities (MSCA).
