You Feed Your Body with Nutrition – Don’t Forget Your Brain
Monday, November 12th, 2007Do you feel like you are losing your mind? You might be. Many people don’t give their brain proper nutrition. Eating the right foods with Omega-3 fatty acids can make your mind sharper and more alert.
A new study comes from Norway shows that eating 10 grams of fish per day will sharpen your mind. This will give your brain the amount of Omega-3 fatty acids it needs to function properly. Good sources come from fatty fish such as salmon, lean fish such as cod, and even processed fish “fingers.” Don’t like fish? Include other plant foods in your diet such as walnuts, flaxseeds, and spinach.
There over 5 million Americans that have some sort of Alzheimer’s disease, and there are just as many that suffer from dementia and other neurodegenerative disorders. I hope studies like this lead to intervention of brain function and slow progression of brain disorders.
