We're on a fascinating journey to uncover the deep connection between our gut and brain, and one thing's for sure – what we eat plays a big role in both. You see, our brain munches up about 20% of our daily calories, so why not feed it right?
Here are our top 5 picks for a happier brain:
1.Leafy Green Veggies:
Think kale, spinach and our favourite wheatgrass juice.These green goodies are jam-packed with good stuff like vitamin K, beta carotene, folate, B vitamins, and vitamin E. They're like a superhero team for your brain, with B vitamins providing the energy for building new brain cells.
- 2. Berries:
- These little wonders are like brain boosters in a bowl. They help your brain create fresh cells and clear out the bad stuff, which is awesome, especially as we age. Raspberries, in particular, are brain heroes because they fight off oxidative stress, linked to conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Plus, the flavonoids in berries do wonders for coordination, memory, and mood.
- 3.Omega-3 Goodness:
- Fish is where it's at for omega-3 fatty acids, and your brain absolutely loves these. They keep your brain sharp and attentive. Since your body can't whip up these fatty acids on its own, you've got to get them from your food. Loads of studies say omega-3s boost your brain and help you concentrate. They might even keep your memory in tip-top shape.
- 4.Dark Chocolate:
- Yes, you read that right – dark chocolate is on the list! It's packed with flavonoids, the superheroes of antioxidants, which are known to boost memory and slow down dementia. Plus, it's like a mini spa day for your brain, increasing blood flow and helping with memory, focus, and clarity. Just go for the purest cocoa you can find, and your brain will thank you.
- 5.Turmeric:
- This golden wonder eases the flow of blood vessels in your brain, all thanks to its anti-inflammatory powers. The secret sauce is curcumin, which can sneak into your brain and do wonders. It helps your memory, lifts your spirits, and even encourages the growth of brand-new brain cells.
