Brainy business
Eat for your mind – and you’ll be able to ward off brain-degenerative diseases and keep your brain young.
Our brains rely on carbohydrates and B group vitamins for optimal memory, amino acids for the regulation of mood and polyunsaturated fatty acids in order to balance hormones in the body.
Brain-boosting foods include, vitamin B6-rich salmon, vitamin B9 and B12-packed egg yolk, and canola oil, which is a good source of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
