SUPERFOODS!

SUPERFOODS FOR YOUR BRAIN


Superfoods for the brain are backed by substantial scientific evidence demonstrating their brain health benefits. For example, many studies from Tufts University researchers and others have found that blueberries, strawberries and spinach are effective in preventing and even reversing age-related brain deficits such as decreased short term memory, loss of balance and coordination. In addition to boosting mental sharpness, studies show these antioxidant-rich foods may also reduce the risk of age-related neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, by preventing the effects of free radicals.
