Do you want to know foods that boost the brain power? Here is how you can improve your memory and brain power by eating the right food:
• You should eat fatty fish twice a week. Wild salmon, mackerel and albacore tuna are amazing sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, that experts believe can make brain cells more efficient.
• A 2006 study has found that people who ate most fish had the highest levels of Omega 3 fatty acid DHA in the blood which reduced dementia risk by a whopping 47 percent.
• Eat fruit and vegetables daily. Eat from each of the five color group (red, orange/yellow, white, blue/ purple, and green) for a broad spectrum of brain-protective anti-oxidants. Leafy greens and cruciferous veggies, like broccoli and cauliflower, are particularly potent: a Harvard study found that women who ate the most of these lowered their brain age by 1 to 2 years. Some research shows that flavonoids—anti-oxidants in apples, grapes, onions, wine, tea, and dark chocolate—are also brain boosters.
• Frequently eat: Avocados, olives nuts, and sun flower seeds. These are high in the anti-oxidant Vitamin E, which is especially effective at staving off Alzheimer’s disease. People who ate moderate amounts daily lowered their risk by 67%. Shoot for 15 mg, equal to 56 g of almonds.
