A Norwegian study published in 2013 found that babies whose mothers had taken acetaminophen for 28 days or more during pregnancy had motor and cognitive deficits at 3 years old. Similarly, in 2014, a Danish study found links between prenatal acetaminophen use and both a clinical ADHD diagnosis and ADHD symptoms in offspring at the age of 7. Data were taken from the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study, including 114,744 children who were born between 1999 and 2009, as well as 95,242 mothers and 75,217 fathers. The association between paternal pre-conceptional acetaminophen use and ADHD was similar to the association between maternal use of acetaminophen during pregnancy and ADHD.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over 100 million adults in the United States live with diabetes or prediabetes, the condition that usually precedes the development of type 2 diabetes. While it is unclear exactly what is at the root of this link between prediabetes or diabetes and anxiety or depression, some studies have linked one specific aspect of these metabolic conditions — insulin resistance — with mental health symptoms. Insulin resistance is characterized by the body’s inability to process glucose (a simple sugar) properly, which results in overly high blood sugar levels. Some studies have linked insulin resistance directly with hormonal imbalances in the brain and, as a result, the development of depression-like and anxiety-like behaviors and symptoms.
