The goal of this section of the meeting was to review the relation between nutrition and cognition. The topics selected for discussion included generalized malnutrition, iodine deficiency, iron metabolism, and the relation of fatty acids to the development of the nervous system. Each subject is immense and demands a detailed exposition, but can be treated here only in brief form. However, these short essays should give some insight into the status of our current knowledge.
