Brain-booster Foods

Getting your Omega 3 & 6 vitamins will boost your brain, but there are other ways of increasing your brain power too -

Hydration: most people walk around from day to day mildly dehydrated. This is true most especially in winter when we are not thinking about drinking water. Sipping small amounts of water throughout the day will help to keep you more alert and feel energised. Waiting until you feel thirsty is already way too late- this is a signal that you are dehydrated.

Another great mineral is Manganese, this  helps to form healthy bones, cartilage and nerves as well as boosting your  brain function. The best sources are:  watercress, pineapple, okra, endive, blackberries, raspberries, lettuce, grapes, lima beans, strawberries, oats, beetroot, celery.

Iodine is vital for brain development and will boost your memory. The best sources are: haddock, mackerel, cod, yogurt, plaice, cheddar cheese and chicken.
