Here’s a link to an article by Nina Shadi that specifies five foods that grease the wheels of brains health: http://www.2baware.net/healthy-foods/five-foods-that-do-wonders-for-your-brain/

Ms. Shadi writes that “As you may know, food and calories fuel your body each day giving it the energy it needs to functions. But you also need fuel for brain as well, and there are certain foods that are better than others. Honestly, there are foods that are simply essential for brain health and strength.  Although there are many foods that support brain health, below we will discuss five foods that do wonders for your brain.”

Her five foods that “do wonders for your brain” includes:

  1. Oily fish
  2. Blueberries
  3. Pumpkin seeds
  4. Avocado
  5. Chocolate

While I like all of these, the pumpkin seeds and avocado were a bit of a surprise for me.  Read her article to find out why she chose them.
