Summary

Having a vibrant brain is key to your quality of life, especially as you grow older. In this episode, JJ shares 5 simple things you can do to support your brain to help reduce your risk of developing brain-related diseases. You’ll learn how brain health starts in your gut, why fatty fish should be on your plate (and ways for vegans and vegetarians to get these healthy fats), how eating your veggies can help promote cognition, the best berries to support your memory, and the #1 nut that studies have linked to better cognitive test scores. Plus, you’ll hear JJ’s story about her son’s brain injury and how he healed, how coffee and tea impact your brain (this may surprise you!), the meal timing strategy to boost mental function, the top time to eat carbs for better sleep, and how to combine intermittent fasting with exercise to promote brain health. It’s never too early to start supporting a healthy brain, so tune in to this fun, informative episode! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
