Your brain is an energy-hungry organ, consuming approximately 20% of your body’s calories. Feeding it the right nutrients can enhance cognition, memory, and overall mental performance.

Essential brain-boosting nutrients include:

B vitamins: Critical for neurotransmitter production and energy metabolism
Omega-3 fatty acids: Support brain structure and function
Flavonoids: Improve memory and learning
Choline: Important for memory and mood regulation
Vitamin D: Supports cognitive function and mood

Top brain-friendly foods include:

Fatty fish (salmon, sardines)
Blueberries and other berries
Nuts and seeds
Avocados
Dark leafy greens
Eggs
Dark chocolate (70% or higher cacao)
Turmeric with black pepper

Regular consumption of these foods, combined with adequate sleep and hydration, can help optimize brain function and protect against cognitive decline.
