There are certain foods that are rumored to be good for the brain. The believers feed their child with these particular foods, hoping that the child will be more intelligent and perform better in school.
As practitioners of life cultivation, we hope that dementia will strike us later rather than sooner, so we also eat these foods to improve our brain function.
No matter what you believe, try the foods. The foods are good in themselves, regardless of their brain function.
Fish
It is recommended that we eat fish more than twice a week, 50 grams each time, especially for DNA-rich fish such as salmon, sardines, and mackerel. It functions to strengthen the brain and prevent memory loss. Fish oil contains DNA, which is a very important component in nerve cell membranes. It can maintain the nerve conduction function and normal operation of the brain, help brain cells transport nutrients and clean up waste.
Walnut
It is recommended that we consume 3-5 walnuts a day but not more because it contains high vegetable fat which may be harmful to blood circulation.
