5 Foods for Better Brain Health

We are focused on spreading information regarding brain health in 2022. Dementia cases are increasing and experts estimate that there are currently 6 million Americans suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease. 

We previously shared more detail here about the Connection Between the Mediterranean Diet and Alzheimer’s Disease

While there aren’t any singular foods that can miraculously cure dementia, research believes there are certain foods that may help improve brain function, when eating in combination with a healthy, balanced diet. 

These foods include – 

  • Dark Green Leafy Vegetables 
  • Fatty Fish/Omega 3 Fatty Acids
  • Berries
  • Tea and Coffee
  • Walnuts

Banana Berry Smoothie Bowl

The ingredients in this smoothie bowl are pretty simple but designed to offer many health benefits and create a delicious tasting smoothie as well.

  • Spinach – a handful of leafy greens because you can never have enough greens in our opinion
  • Frozen Blueberries – antioxidant powerhouses, these little super foods are chock full of nutrients and offer great flavor and color to this smoothie bowl
  • Almond Butter – a thick addition that also offers a bit of protein
  • Flax seed – love adding this to my kid’s smoothies because one if allergic to fish so it’s a good way to get in Omega 3 fatty acids
  • Frozen Strawberries – berries are great for brain health and have a lot of antioxidants
  • Frozen Banana – great source of potassium and also makes this smoothie extra creamy in texture

+ 2 scoops of Memore, which offers an entire serving of dark green leafy vegetables, dietary fiber, plant based protein, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
