Now that school is starting back up, it’s time to give your brain everything it needs to stay sharp and attentive in class.
So here are 5 foods to help you improve your memory and supercharge your brain:
Fish
Fish is not only high in good protein, but also filled with essential
vitamins and minerals for your brain; including: phosphorus, magnesium,
selenium, and vitamins A and D. And fish oil is a great source of
Omega-3 fat, which can improve your brain’s chemistry and development.
We recommend: tuna, sardine, anchovy, salmon and bluefish.
Blueberries
The Journal of Neuroscience
published some research from Tufts University that suggested that
blueberries can improve memory loss. Blueberries are also filled with
antioxidants and have been reported to inhibit colon cancer and Ovarian
cancer.
Wholegrain Foods
Wholegrain foods are a great way to get folic acid and B vitamins into
your body. You see, B vitamins like Thiamine, Pantothenic Acid, and
Pridoxine have been shown to reduce memory loss. If you’re not eating
enough wholegrain foods, we recommend taking a good B vitamin that has
B1, B5, B6, and B12.
Pumpkin Seeds
Buy a bag of roasted pumpkin seeds and chew on them throughout the day.
Pumpkin seeds are filled with zinc, which has been known to help
improve thinking skills.
Broccoli
Broccoli is filled with vitamin K, and can help improve your brain chemistry and overall brainpower.
Eating all the right foods won’t guarantee that you’re brain is at
its best performance. You need to balance healthy eating along with
good sleep, cardiovascular activity, and plenty of water.
