what does the nervous system need most to function properly? fats, carbs.?


Answers:
It needs protein and the right types of fatty acids (eg Omega 3 types), in abundance, to form properly. It mostly uses simple sugars as fuel (eg glucose), AFAIK.Cats need taurine to develop their brains, BTW. It is an amino acid, but is not one of the 20 normally used to build proteins.
It normally functions on glucose, but it LOVES ketones. Also fats are important for myelinization.
vitamin B complex (1-6-12)
