Following up on our discussion of Forensic Neuroscience, Dr. Brown introduces us to the tasty topic of nutritional neuroscience. We cover the Dan White case from San Francisco, California in the 1970s. Mr. White murdered Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk, after a series of disputes. In the years since many have scoffed at White’s lawyers who argued his poor diet led to physiological state where the defendant was suffering from a diminished ability to make decisions (i.e., “Twinkie Defense”). Could there have been something to that idea? Join us for this detailed discussion of how nutrition helps conduct our behavior. Contact Dr. Brown at [email protected] for further information on this topic. He will provide a copy of the comprehensive nutritional neuroscience article to anyone who emails him.Highlights:- “Twinkie defense”: The Dan White case overview- Diet and criminal behavior connection- Lead paint- Prison diet and health impact- Circadian rhythms and their impact on health and behavior- The basics of neurotransmitters, neurohormones, and the HPA axis- The literature on lifestyle medicine and therapeutic lifestyle changes- Community partnerships and programs like community gardens and horticulture therapy- Criminal responsibility in light of nutritional neuroscience.
