Here are the 10 best foods for the brain, according to nutrition experts from Harvard:
Berries and beans: Berries such as blueberries, strawberries, and cranberries are rich in antioxidants, helping protect the brain from damage. Soybeans, green beans, and lentils are good plant-based protein sources for the brain, and can be added to various dishes.
Colorful fruits and vegetables: Fruits and vegetables with vibrant colors provide a variety of essential nutrients for the brain. Leafy greens like kale and spinach are excellent for memory, while fruits like apples, pineapples, kiwis, and oranges provide vitamin C to protect the brain from damage.
Antioxidants: Dark chocolate is a great source of antioxidants, helping to improve brain function and reduce the risk of memory decline, as long as it doesn’t contain too much sugar.
Lean protein and plant-based protein: Sources of lean protein like chicken, seafood, eggs, and grass-fed beef are excellent for the brain, providing essential amino acids. Tofu, tempeh, and lentils are great plant-based protein options.
