Strategies for Optimal Brain Health Through Nutrition and Supplements
Eating cold plant foods rich in fiber helps reduce surges of sugar in the brain, preventing Alzheimer's type 3 diabetes. Consuming nuts, seeds, veggies, whole grains, and beans is beneficial for brain health. Maintaining a healthy gut microbiome is crucial for protecting the brain and preventing Alzheimer's. Omega-3 fats are essential for brain function, and low-fat diets are not optimal for brain health. Adequate protein intake is vital to prevent muscle loss, which can lead to various problems in the brain. Good quality supplements like multi-magnesium, vitamin D, omega-3 fats, probiotics, and B vitamins are important for brain health. Identifying and addressing underlying issues like mercury poisoning, Lyme disease, mold exposure, food sensitivities, or gut problems may be necessary for better brain health. Consuming 'genius foods,' rich in nutrients like DHA fat, can promote neuroprotection and neuroplasticity, enhancing brain function.
