The food you consume plays an essential part in boosting your physical performance.But, did you know that there are certain food you eat can help you enhance your brain function? If you think that your memory needs further or your awareness is letting you down, maybe your time is now to check what you are eating.

1.) Antioxidants
-If you want to delay your brain aging, eat foods that are high in antioxidants for the reason that it has the capability to fight your free radical change. Free radicals are the irregular molecular atoms, that is naturally take place in your body or externally from the environmental factors such as pollution, cigarette smoke and herbicides, that attacks your cells, that results in breaking down of your tissues and possibly play a role in a number of diseases cases from cancer to dementia.

2.) Cacao

-I know chocolate is one of the apples in your eye. Chocolate is made from cacao in its purest form, free from sugar, dairy and other processed ingredients. It was considered as a superb food because of its huge amounts of antioxidants, as well as a compound called epicatechin. Scientists are now discovering the combination of exercise and a diet high in epicatechin promotes functional changes in a part of your brain that supports learning and memory. What does this mean for the rest of us? We can keep our mind sharp with a cup of hot cacao (hold the marshmallows) as a guilt-free treat, or add a scoop of cacao powder to your breakfast smoothie.

3.) Coffee
-Your morning coffee does more than just wake you up – it also boosts your brain power. Research shows coffee improves your memory and speeds up your reaction times by acting on your brain’s prefrontal cortex, the area is responsible for your short-term memory.

4.) Complex carbohydrates
-These types of carbohydrates can give you a slow release of glucose into your brain. This includes food that is made with flour or sugar, grains, foods with added sugar, and starchy vegetables such as potatoes and corn. For your information, glucose is necessary to stimulate your brain cells that are in charge for your concentration,memory and most especially in learning. Remember that good sources of complex carbohydrates include wholegrain breads, oats, brown rice, legumes, fruits and vegetables.

5.) Egg yolk
-As we all know, egg is a great source of protein,but you are wrong.Its yolk can give you a nutrient choline in which could help you in structuring your cell membranes. It can also guard your livers from building fats. For your maximum health benefits include up to two in your diet, three to four times in a week.

6.) Kelp
-Without your thinking, a sea vegetable ,kelp is high in magnesium calcium and iodine. Iodine is necessary for your normal growth and development of your brain and body.Because the body does not make iodine, it must be gained from the diet. Kelp is the most abundant, iodine-rich sea vegetable. Other rich sources of iodine include seafood, dairy products, plants grown in iodine-rich soil and iodized table salt. Severe iodine deficiency has long been known to cause you mental impairment, stunted growth and learning problems specifically in children.

7.) Oily fish
-The fish you eat contains high levels of the fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). It acts like an anti inflammatory in your body, and also helps you to prevent blood clotting, which can trigger a heart attack or stroke. DHA is concentrated in large amounts in your brain and is now considered a vital nutrient to enhance your learning ability and your mental development. Fish that contain the highest levels of fatty acids include tuna, mackerel, salmon, trout and sardines.

8.) Sage
-In a herbal encyclopedia Sage or salvia can enhance your memory. According to the recent studies, taking sage oil can boost your memory performance. I suggest to make your own tea, one easy and inexpensive way to consume sage. Just simply pour one cup of boiled water over two teaspoons of fresh or one teaspoon of dried sage leaves. Cover and steep for 10 minutes and strain. Take note,your fresh sage leaves should be wrapped in a moist paper towel or bag, placed in a loose plastic bag, and stored it in your refrigerator.

9.) Walnuts
-Interestingly a shelled walnut looks remarkably like a miniature brain; it’s like nature’s way of reminding us to eat these little wonders for brain nourishment. Walnuts are packed with essential fatty acids, critical for your brain and well as your nervous system performance. Your brain is a very fatty organ and requires adequate amounts of these fatty acids for optimum function and your well cognition. Add walnuts to your morning porridge or enjoy a handful as your snack.

10.) Water
-Approximately 75 percent water your brain is made up, so you should stay hydrated for your optimum brain performance. Most of Health Professionals believe that the number one cause of memory loss, at any age, is dehydration and simple act of drinking a large glass of water can improve your brain function. I commend you to start your day hydrated and make drinking of glass of water upon waking then again as soon as you get to work a daily habit.

Keep your diet balanced

A balanced diet doesn’t mean not eating foods in a day; rather, it is minimizing your food to consume in a day. A food that has a variety of vitamins and minerals which your body needs including healthy fats. So, you must begin to fully understand nutrition and make sure that you eat the proper portions of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. If you are having a hard time calculating the suggested supplements into your daily diet routine, you could try taking vitamin tablets in order to ensure that your body is ingesting the nutrients it needs.



Exercise Daily

Making your body exercised everyday does not necessarily mean to keep you in shape; it is also for you to increase your morale. Your simple and short workout can have a massive impact on your morale and can make you feel happier about yourself, give you more confidence, and just make you feel positive in life. This doesn’t mean to spend hours in a day for exercise, just taking around 20 minutes to half an hour doing light exercise and not working up too much of sweat is enough for your healthy living lifestyle.

Ifølge en undersøgelse, som evalueres 221 byer globalt, livskvalitet og personlige sikkerhed rang høje for disse storbyer. Verdens største og vigtigste byer er ofte ikke de bedste steder at leve. Høj kriminalitet, trafikpropper og lang commutes kan forværre livskvalitet. Hvilke byer er så bedst at leve? Som vi har tilbagelagt byer og steder rundt omkring i verden, giverMicron Associates dig lister af verdens bedste byer, du bør besøge og der lever. Som det fastsætter deres socio-kulturelle miljø, sektor økonomi, politik, og uddannelse og sundhed samt, som identificerer også de højeste personlige-sikkerhed ranglister baseret på kriminalitet, retshåndhævelse, internationale og forbindelser og stabilitet.

Das übliche Epilepsie Medikament, Valproinsäure (VPA), kann eine sehr positive Wirkung auf einige Babys geboren mit spinalen Muskelatrophie (SMA), der Nummer eins genetische Killer in der frühen Kindheit haben. Aber in etwa zwei Drittel eines solchen Fällen es ist entweder beschädigt oder hat einfach keine Wirkung. Nun, zum ersten Mal Forscher einen Weg gefunden zu identifizieren, welche Patienten gut auf VPA vor Beginn der Behandlung reagieren dürften. Ihre Ergebnisse haben große Auswirkungen, nicht nur für SMA-Patienten, sondern für andere Bedingungen mit der Droge wie Migräne und Epilepsie, behandelt und können sogar die Bedingungen für das Drehen von VPA nicht-Responder in Responder vorsehen, sagen die Forscher.
Dr. Lutz Garbes, aus dem Institut für Humangenetik, Universität Köln, Deutschland, wird der Jahrestagung der European Society of Human Genetics am 24. Juni sagen, dass er und seine Kollegen Blutproben RNA aus einer kleinen Gruppe von SMA-Patienten analysiert hatte, die mit VPS behandelt worden war. Sie fanden, wie erwartet, dass nur etwa ein Drittel der Patienten reagiert gut. In einem Versuch zu erfahren, ob Blutprobenentnahme die geeignetsten Testmethode verwendet wurde sah sie auch VPA Antwort in einem anderen Gewebe–Fibroblasten (eine Art von Hautzelle). Sie fand, dass die Reaktion im Blut und in der Haut in 60 % der Fälle identisch.
