Eating for the Future

From the article, 15 "Brain Foods" That May Help Preserve Your Memory, “Protein is the second-largest matter in the brain, second only to water, so it is important to nourish your brain with protein-rich foods. Proteins help neurons within the brain communicate with each other through neurotransmitters that are made from amino acids.” It says “berries are rich in antioxidants and protect against free radicals that attack our cells”. It recommends eating nuts, salmon, beans, blueberries, dark greens, lean red meats, avocados, tomatoes, whole grains, red cabbage, brown rice, green tea, red wine, dark chocolate, and quinoa.

I use this as a guide to help me eat healthy and good foods for the brain. I would like to share it with my audience so that they can get the benefits as well. Like I’ve said, you are what you eat.
