8 Foods That Improve Cognitive Functioning
Foods with Omega-3 Fatty Acids:
Higher levels of Omega-3 fatty acids have been found to improve memory and reduce blood levels of beta-amyloid plaques - the protein clumps linked to Alzheimer’s disease (https://www.health.harvard.edu/healthbeat/foods-linked-to-better-brainpower).
Salmon - Low in mercury and one of the best sources of Omega-3s!
Avocados - The food that tastes good on just about everything!
Flax Seeds and Chia Seeds - You can find these in our store :)
Walnuts - Have you ever heard that foods that resemble certain organs and are especially good for those organs? These brain-like nuts have a special type of Omega-3 called Alpha-Linolenic Acid, which is very closely linked to improved memory!
