The association between intellectual retardation and malnutrition early in life has been the
subject of recent reports,[ie, 5, 10-12, 37]. The effects of nutritional deprivation on animal
brain growth and development have been documented; the implications of these findings for
animal learning ability and behavior remain controversial [2, 13, 15, 16, 27, 42]. It has been

The association between intellectual retardation and malnutrition early in life has been the subject of recent reports,[ie, 5, 10-12, 37]. The effects of nutritional deprivation on animal brain growth and development have been documented; the implications of these findings for animal learning ability and behavior remain controversial [2, 13, 15, 16, 27, 42].
It has been demonstrated that in humans severe protein-calorie malnutrition in early childhood is strongly associated with retarded brain growth and development [34, 41], with disturbances in central nervous system function and with retarded cognitive development [6, 28, 38]. On the other hand, the association of less severe malnutrition with mental retardation is not as clear [32]. The reversibility of this impairment in cognitive development is probably a function of the severity, duration and
