- Key mechanisms by which dietary macronutrients affect the brain and cognition include glucose and insulin metabolism, neurotransmitter actions, and cerebral oxidation and inflammation. In conclusion, macronutrient intake affects cognitive function both acutely and in the long-term, involving peripheral and central mechanisms.

Jun 1, 2021 · In sum, dietary macronutrient intake affects cognitive functions and behavior via neurotransmitters directly, and in the case of serotonin indirectly via insulin metabolism. Most elucidated are effects on dopaminergic and serotonergic pathways via tyrosine and tryptophan.

Advances in molecular biology have revealed the ability of food-derived signals to influence energy metabolism and synaptic plasticity and, thus, mediate the effects of food on cognitive function, which is likely to have been crucial for the evolution of the modern brain.
Jun 1, 2021 · Here, we review human studies linking macronutrient intake and cognitive performance with potential underlying mechanisms. Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins impact differently on cognitive function via multiple pathways such as glucose and insulin metabolism and neurotransmitter systems.

In summary, consuming macronutrients influences cognitive performance through both central and peripheral pathways acutely and over time. Inadequate nutrition undermines brain integrity and function, whereas a good diet maintains it.
