We do a lot and eat right for good skin, prevent bloating and avoid inflammation. But what about our brains? The relationship between diet and brain health—from how to sharpen your mind and memory to starting Alzheimer's prevention super early—has been getting lots of attention lately.
Walnuts – Walnuts have the highest level of omega-3 fatty acids among all nuts. Omega-3 fatty acids have a protective effect on the brain as they boost the functioning of neurotransmitters, which in turn improves memory and cognitive skills.
Caffeine – this mild stimulant found in coffee, improves mental sharpness. Apart from the brain boosting effects, antioxidants in coffee helps maintain brain health.
Dark leafy vegetables – kale, spinach and other dark green vegetables are rich in iron and phytonutrients which are natural-occurring chemicals in plants that help prevent diseases and keeps your body working as it should.
Green tea – green tea contains antioxidants and the metabolism-boosting compound epigallocatechin gallate. It also contains L-theanine, which helps you relax and focus at the same time.
Broccoli – Broccoli is a source of two crucial nutrients that help improve brain function. Vitamin K helps to strengthen cognitive abilities while Choline has been found to improve memory. People who eat plenty of broccoli perform better on memory tests.
Beetroot – Beet juice improves brain health in a simpler and sustainable way. It contains high levels of dietary nitrates, which are strong vasodilators (blood vessel dilators). Nitrates, which lead to a higher nitric oxide content in the body and brain, help increase oxygen flow in the brain.
