Food intake during pregnancy does need to be kept and watched closely. The reason, too much protein is present in meat, cheese, and nuts risk of increasing the risk of schizophrenia in infant development in the future.
Reporting from Medical News Today, schizophrenia is a long-term mental disorder that usually appears in late adolescence or early adulthood.
Characterized by delusions, hallucinations, chaotic thoughts, behavioral changes and other cognitive difficulties.
The scientists found that the 'overload' of amino acids found in fish and dairy products, nuts and seeds, caused symptoms of mental health disorder.
From these findings, the researchers hope that they can find new anti-psychotic drugs. One of them is methionine.
Methionine is an essential amino acid, one of the 'building blocks' of proteins that help build and repair cells, which can not be produced by the human body.
For that, it takes the appropriate nutritional intake that comes from food.
This content is needed for growth and tissue repair and also helps break down the fat in the liver and arteries.
When pregnant women lack methionine, children will experience liver damage, muscle loss, fat loss, skin lesions, weakness, lethargy and slow slow growth.
Unfortunately, until now the cause of schizophrenia is unknown. However, most experts believe the condition is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
The study of people with the condition has shown a subtle difference in their brain structure.
Author of the Alachkar Charity study from the University of California says, "Our study shows a very important role of excessive methionine diet during pregnancy in terms of fetal development, which may have long-term effects on offspring."
This is a really nice piece, would recommend for my sister who is pregnant..
