A study featured in the February 2000 issue of The Journal of
Alternative and Complementary Medicine suggests that supplements
may correct kids' nutritional deficiencies and in the process,
reduce anti-social behavior.
Many children with violent or disruptive behavior suffer from
nutritional deficiencies. Correcting these deficiencies with
supplementation reduced the incidence of anti-social behavior in 6-
to 12-year-olds. The children in the study who received
supplements were disciplined 47 percent less during the school year
than those who received a placebo.
Researchers gave a group of 40 students daily supplements
formulated to provide the nutritional equivalent of vitamins and
minerals present in a well-balanced diet; another group of 40
received a placebo. The students were then rated on serious
rule violations.
The authors of the study believe that poor nutritional habits
lead to low concentrations of water-soluble vitamins in the blood,
impair brain function and subsequently cause violence and other
serious anti-social behavior. They theorised that correcting
the low vitamin concentrations improved brain function and lowered
the incidence of violent and anti-social behavior.
