How many times have our parents and our grandparents told us, “you are what you eat?” Of course none of us is *actually* a green bean, an apple or a potato. But we certainly become nourished (or not) by the foods and drinks we consume. And apparently that can impact one’s adult behavior.
Here’s an article published at Yahoo titled Eating Candy in Childhood Linked to Adult Crime. It references a study done by Simon Moore from Cardiff University in the UK (and a couple other studies). I’ll try to get direct links to them if I can. While correlation definitely does not imply causality, “Moore acknowledges that there is also some intriguing data suggesting that diet itself may have a profound effect on behavior.”
Score another one for our parents and grandparents.
