BRAIN BOOSTING FOODS

Many people especially students have used pills to boost their brains and memory towards exams but this seems to be very expensive both in a short and long run and yet using natural foods would be cheaper and are more available. Although they are also made from these foods.

For one to greatly fuel their thinking, creativity, problem solving and memory, here are some cheap and healthy foods to help as directed by Dr. Greg Wells a scientist and professor at the University of Toronto.

Fish

cold water fish is high in omega-3 fatty acids that are great for brain and nervous system health and is also great for memory recovery and relief on fatigue examples include the salmon (unfarmed).

Nuts

These are commonly used as snacks but studies show that they contain healthy fats, vitamins and minerals that improve thinking and memory. Therefore get your favorite type and take a portion with you to school every day.

Avacado

it contains monounsaturated fats that help improve cardiovascular system and blood flow to all organs in the body including the brain. Since the brains have no stored energy and depends on blood flow to deliver the glucose and oxygen that it needs to think, foods that improve on the circulatory system can help super charge the brain.

Coconut

they contain fatty acids that are mostly saturated which means it is one of the oils that won’t go bad when cooked at high temperatures. the medium chain triglycerides inside are special because they can be broken down more easily that other types of fat and can also be used as fuel to our bodies and brains.

The coconut oil also enhances the ability of the brain neurons to use energy while at the same time reducing the production of damaging free radicals. It provides saturated fat a vital nutrient for the integrity and function of the brain cell membranes
