Did you know that the foods we eat daily determine our brain's health and well-being? And here’s what’s important. There are superfoods and lifestyle choices that can heal our brains. It’s a question that lurks in our minds. Could the foods we eat really affect our ability to concentrate, focus, learn, and remember? Can the foods we eat really harm our brains? Every day, when we choose foods to eat, do we ask ourselves, "Is this food good for my brain, my body, and my well-being?"
Well, nutritionists tell us that parts of the brain linked to learning, memory, and mental health are smaller in people who have lots of fast foods, hamburgers, fries, potato chips, and soft drinks in their diet. However, their research shows that berries, whole grains, nuts, and green leafy vegetables preserve brain function and slow mental decline. So, what does this mean for us? There is a lot of discussion today about healthy food choices, plant-based options, and food for our well-being. How do we determine the best foods for our brains and our health?
Join Gary as he and a nutritional neuroscientist discuss the impact of food on our brains, the best foods for our brains and the foods that harm our brains.
