Eating for Brain Health

The food you eat is a powerful tool for brain health, influencing everything from memory and focus to mood and overall cognitive function. Certain nutrients, like omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins, support brain cell communication, protect against aging, and boost mental clarity. The good news? You don’t need to overhaul your diet to start reaping the benefits.

Simple additions like blueberries, walnuts, and dark leafy greens are easy to include in meals and snacks. Swap your usual cooking oil for extra virgin olive oil, toss salmon or sardines into a salad, or enjoy a handful of pumpkin seeds for a quick brain boost. Small, consistent changes can lead to big results for your mind and body. Fuel your brain, and it will reward you with sharper thinking and long-term resilience.
