It is important for a person at any age to develop and maintain the intellectual abilities of the brain.
Children, pupils and students need this for their overall development, attendance at school and higher education institutions and success in life.
Elderly people need to develop their brains to avoid age-related pathologies such as dementia, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.
In the effective development of brain activity, not only daily developmental activities play a major role, but also products that must be included in the diet of people of any age category.
Almond
Eating this type of nut helps increase the level of a brain chemical responsible for memory. Almonds have even been proven to be effective in treating amnesia.
It is also worth noting the fact that regular consumption of almonds helps improve vision.
Beet
This root vegetable contains nitrates, which are responsible for the flow of blood to the brain.
Thus, regular consumption of beets can restore weak memory, as well as activate the brain functions responsible for making the right decisions.
Blueberry
The berries contain plant compounds that prevent premature aging of the brain and the development of neurodegenerative diseases.
Regular consumption of blueberries helps strengthen memory, develop cognitive functions and improves vision.
Dark chocolate
In this case, we mean chocolate that contains more than 70-75% cocoa powder.
The product contains flavonoids and antioxidants necessary for normal brain function, which are responsible for the development of memory and improve learning abilities.
Fatty fish
Fish oil, found in sea fish, is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for strengthening memory, developing learning abilities and improving cognitive functions of the brain.
Green tea
Regular consumption of this aromatic brain will help to relax the brain and relieve its hyperactivity.
Thanks to these properties of green tea, a person who has been in a state of anxiety and constant worry for a long time becomes much calmer. In addition, 3-4 cups of green tea a day can effectively and permanently strengthen the immune system.
Walnut
Daily consumption of walnuts can not only be an excellent source of useful microelements necessary for effective brain function, but also help prevent cardiovascular diseases.
Greens, lettuce, spinach, cabbage
Leafy vegetables and greens contain elements such as antioxidants, folic acid and carotenoids, which are responsible for accelerating brain function and maintaining it at the proper level.
Eggs
Eggs contain lecithin, vitamin B12 and choline – vitamins, the deficiency of which can lead to premature atrophy of the brain. The yolk is one of the most useful components, since it contains choline, without which all cells and neurons of the brain cannot form and exist.
Dried fruits, dates and raisins
These products are useful because their main effect is aimed precisely at ensuring that the brain always works well, attention is concentrated, and memory remains in excellent condition for a long time.
It is important to remember that dried fruits should not be consumed in large quantities, as they are high-calorie foods.
It is enough to consume 10-15 dried fruits and berries per day or 1-3 teaspoons of ground dried fruits, to which you can add a little walnuts and honey.
You can maintain brain health at any age if you add to all of the above healthy, timely sleep, exercise, avoiding stressful situations and engaging in any kind of creativity.
Earlier we talked about how to cope with the feeling of hunger.
