Our brains need fuel to function optimally.
But not just any ol’ fuel - proper fuel.
Our brains need foods rich in antioxidants, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals. These provide the brain with energy and protection, as well as support a healthy gut and inflammation response. A healthy gut means the hormones and neurotransmitters that affect cognitive function are working properly - the cycle can operate the way it should.
Try incorporating these foods into your diet:
Regular cardiovascular exercise increases your heart rate and increases blood flow to the brain and the rest of the body.
According to a recent study, individuals who were highly physically active showed 38% less risk of cognitive decline, and those who did low-to-moderate level exercise also showed a significantly 35% reduced risk.
So don’t be afraid to break a sweat - it’s good for your brain!
- Get around 7-9 hours a night of sleep; preferably around the same time every day.
- Get regular exercise. Not only can it help increase the effectiveness of your sleep, it can help you release tension and stress.
- Spend time without screens and other technology distractions. Meditate, stretch, read… give yourself time to unplug as you end the day.
