Omega-3 Fatty Acids
For those who haven't read about them I suggest a google and/or wikipedia search now.
So while a lot of the data is debated hotly right now I find this bit of information very interesting.
The United States instituted a rationing system in the 40s. During this period of time families with Children were allowed virtually unlimited access to Cod Liver Oil. This down home suppliment was in amazingly high use to combat all kinds of supposed maladies. It was known then as a good source of vitamins A and D.
Now if you take the Children that grew up during the 40s and extrapolate their careers... you end up with interesting things... during they 60s they were 20-30.. 80s they were 40-50. When you match that up to normal engineering and science profesions and normal ages of highest productivity it is very interesting.
Anyway enough random connections that may or may not be relavent. But have fun reading what you find.
Notes: Your brains are mostly formed of different kinds of fats. Your brain forms of course while in the womb all the way up until about puberty when it simply goes into maintence mode and you then start to lose a certain amount of brain cells as you age... maybe what kind of fat your body has available to it is important? :)
