  • Title: Vitamin/mineral supplements and intelligence of institutionalized mentally retarded adults.
    Author: Ellis NR, Tomporowski PD.
    Journal: Am J Ment Defic; 1983 Sep; 88(2):211-4. PubMed ID: 6638082.
    Abstract:
    Vitamin/mineral supplements were administered to institutionalized mentally retarded adults in a double-blind study over a 7-month period. No changes were observed in IQ nor in adaptive behavior, i.e., independent living skills within the institution. This was a replication with adults of a previous study of children that had obtained positive results. Possible reasons for the different findings were discussed.
