PETER W. BENNETT JONATHAN BROSTOFF Abstract: This questionnaire-based research addressed the young offender population in order to estimate the proportion likely to have food allergic and other nutritionally related disorders such as hyperactivity. A controlled health and dietary survey was conducted with 100 young offenders and 100 matched non-offenders. The offender group reported significantly higher rates of ill health than the non-offender group. It is suggested that the nutritional health of young offenders could be investigated as part of present statutory requirements to consider the physical and mental health of young criminals. There was no real difference between the diets of the two groups. Further research is justified into the association between nutrition, health and behaviour problems. From this study, the proportion of the persistent young offender population with maladaptive behaviours linked to food allergy, food intolerance and nutritional problems is cautiously estimated to be 75% whereas 18% of the young non-offender population is similarly affected.

Research Interests: Alex Richardson is best known for her research into how nutrition can affect behaviour, learning and mood, although her work involves several large-scale collaborative programmes that include studies of genetics, brain imaging, biochemistry and nutrition as well as physiological and psychological functioning. Her primary research interests include: the biology of individual differences in personality, perception and cognition, particularly in relation to developmental and psychiatric disorders. the role of nutrition in brain development and function, and its implications for behaviour, learning and mood. Her current research centres on the role of fatty acids in both developmental and psychiatric disorders -- including dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADHD, and the autistic spectrum as well as schizophrenia and depression. Recent and ongoing work includes controlled treatment studies to investigate the effects of fatty acid supplements in the management of these conditions and the likely mechanisms underlying this kind of treatment. Alex's research has always been aimed at developing new methods of identification and management that will have real practical benefit. She therefore works closely with a range of education and health practitioners as well as local and national support groups and charities. She helped to found the Dyslexia Research Trust, was a co-opted Trustee and Scientific Advisor to the Dyspraxia Foundation, serves on the Biomedical Research Committee of Autism Unravelled, and liaises closely with the Hyperactive Children's Support Group among others. Alex is a regular speaker at national and international research meetings and already has more than 70 research publications in peer-reviewed journals and academic books. She originally trained as a teacher, and her excellent communication skills and clear presentation style are such that she is frequently invited to give lectures and talks to health and education professionals, support groups, charities and other organisations. Her work has received substantial media coverage in recent years, and she has given numerous interviews for the press, radio and TV both in the UK and abroad. Pediatrics. 2005 May; 115(5): 1360-6. The Oxford-Durham study: a randomized, controlled trial of dietary supplementation with fatty acids in children with developmental coordination disorder. Richardson AJ, Montgomery P. University Laboratory of Physiology, Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3PT, United Kingdom. Alexandra J. Richardson, DPhil(Oxon)* and Paul Montgomery, DPhil(Oxon)#**, * University Laboratory of Physiology, Oxford, United Kingdom # Departments of Psychiatry ** Departments of Social Policy and Social Work, University of Oxford, UK Section of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, University of Oxford, Park Hospital, Old Road, Headington, Oxford OX3 7LQ, UK. BACKGROUND: Developmental coordination disorder (DCD) affects approximately 5% of school-aged children. In addition to the core deficits in motor function, this condition is associated commonly with difficulties in learning, behavior, and psychosocial adjustment that persist into adulthood. Mounting evidence suggests that a relative lack of certain polyunsaturated fatty acids may contribute to related neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders such as dyslexia and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Given the current lack of effective, evidence-based treatment options for DCD, the use of fatty acid supplements merits investigation. METHODS: A randomized, controlled trial of dietary supplementation with omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, compared with placebo, was conducted with 117 children with DCD (5-12 years of age). Treatment for 3 months in parallel groups was followed by a 1-way crossover from placebo to active treatment for an additional 3 months. RESULTS: No effect of treatment on motor skills was apparent, but significant improvements for active treatment versus placebo were found in reading, spelling, and behavior over 3 months of treatment in parallel groups. After the crossover, similar changes were seen in the placebo-active group, whereas children continuing with active treatment maintained or improved their progress. CONCLUSIONS: Fatty acid supplementation may offer a safe efficacious treatment option for educational and behavioral problems among children with DCD. Additional work is needed to investigate whether our inability to detect any improvement in motor skills reflects the measures used and to assess the durability of treatment effects on behavior and academic progress.

Ross, BSc SRD MSc CChem MRSC Co Director of FAB Research Research Interests: Marion is a state registered dietitian and chartered chemist who originally trained as an analytical chemist and has spent many years in biochemical research. She is a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry and the British Dietetic Association. A strong interest in nutrition led her to qualify as a dietitian after which she went back into research, gaining an MSc whilst researching free radicals, antioxidants and sulphated polysaccharides. Marion has previously worked in the pharmaceutical industry in both Quality Control and Analytical Development. More recently she spent five years researching potential diagnostics and nutrition in psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders and during this time developed a breath test for use in psychiatric research. Marion is regularly invited to give talks and conference presentations on the topic of nutrition and psychiatry. She has presented her work at national as well as international conferences. Her work has attracted considerable media interest and she has given many interviews to newspaper journalists and scientific magazines, including the New Scientist. Marion has appeared in a Discovery Channel documentary and she has also given radio interviews. She is a member of the Biomedical Research Committee of Autism Unravelled.

Folic acid, from fruits and vegetables, plays a role by powerfully protecting against methanol (formaldehyde) toxicity. Many common drugs, such as aspirin, interfere with folic acid, as do some mutations in relevant enzymes. The majority of aspartame reactors are female.

American Dietetic Association. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1068 critique of aspartame review by American Dietetic Association Feb 2004, Valerie B. Duffy & Madeleine J. Sigman-Grant: Murray 2004.05.14 "Survey of aspartame studies: correlation of outcome and funding sources," 1998, unpublished: http://www.dorway.com/peerrev.html Walton found 166 separate published studies in the peer reviewed medical literature, which had relevance for questions of human safety. The 74 studies funded by industry all (100%) attested to aspartame's safety, whereas of the 92 non-industry funded studies, 84 (91%) identified a problem. Six of the seven non-industry funded studies that were favorable to aspartame safety were from the FDA, which has a public record that shows a strong pro-industry bias. Ralph G.
