Cairo University, EgyptTitle: Vitamin D and cruciferous vegetables: Do they affect pediatric empathy?
Abstract
Cruciferous vegetables are rich sources of vitamin D, both of which can alter pediatric behavior. Some mood disorders are associated with disruptive behavior, which pharmacologic management is needed to limit such behavior. Cruciferous vegetables contain hepatic inducing enzymes that alter the metabolism of CNS medications. Dietary manipulation can improve the effects of CNS medications, thus assisting responses to treatment. In fact, other dietary components can increase pediatric aggression, including food additives, refined carbohydrates, and saturated fats. After all, a ‘happy meal’, though conveying short-term joy to a child, might risk the child’s psychological and cognitive well-being on a long-term basis. “Not all that glows is always diamond”. Hence, behavioral therapy should rely, in part, on teaching our children what to eat, and what to avoid eating. Another entity is when to eat, because circadian rhythm is not just about sleeping time and quality, but quality eating is crucial. A healthy diet that supports good sleep, elevates mood, and improves cognition, would help the present child to thrive and become a future healthy adult, able to judge, lead, and interact normally with the environment.
