Brain health should be of great importance to you. You can live without many organs, but you cannot live without your brain. Here are a few key nutrients to help feed your brain everyday.
Omega-3s - this is the main fatty acid in the brain and is associated with brain development and function. Foods that are high in this fatty acid are salmon and other cold water fish, walnuts, and flax seed oil.
Choline - is a water- soluble B vitamin, it is a chemical building block of every cell in the body. Studies show that it may help improve memory and protect against senility in old age. Good sources of Choline are egg yolks, skim milk, soybeans, and lentils.
Folic Acid - this is also a vitamin B, it enhances cognitive function which suggests that it may help protect against the development of Alzheimer's disease. A few good sources of this are spinach, asparagus, and avocado.
It is always important to eat to be healthy!
