Summary		Prehrana je eden od mnogih dejavnikov, ki vplivajo na rast in razvoj otrok, na razvoj možganov in kognitivni razvoj. V literaturi je največ dokazov o pomenu podhranjenosti in pomanjkanja joda, železa in folne kisline za razvoj možganov. Raziskave so dokazale, da je vloga cinka, vitamina B [spodaj] 12, [omega]-3 polinenasičenih maščobnih kislin in nekaterih esencialnih aminokislin tudi pomembna. Članek seznanja z raziskavami, ki poudarjajo vlogo vitaminov in mineralov za razvoj mo ganov in kognitivnih sposobnosti otrok.
