You should provide foods that have
many essential micronutrients for physiological activities of brain so that
your brain can be healthy and resistant.
From a research
Scientists of Case Western University
(Reserve, America) discovered that when thinking activities take place or do
not take place, brain also uses a certain amount of energy.
Indeed, according to experiment of
Professor Rossana Occhipinti and his assistants at Case Western Reserve
University: This experiment was carried out to a volunteer person that was
asked to do a math. In that process, they used an equipment to sweep magnetic
resonance to check process of consuming calories in that person’s brain. People
recognized that when that person finished doing operations and stopped thinking
to take rest, nerve cells operated positively. At that time, another neuron
started operating strongly to brake activities of nerve cells operating about
mentality. In addition, process of burning calories also takes place.
You
should provide foods that have many essential micronutrients for physiological
activities of brain so that your brain can be healthy and resistant.
Therefore, it’s necessary to provide brain
with foods that have nutritious value to operate every day. Brain is similar to
other organs of body. It also needs to eat correct and enough nutrients
according to demand of every day. It means that in daily diet, you must provide
foods that are rich of efficient nutrients for brain such as fish, eggs, milk,
kinds of fruits like: avocado, pear, banana, pineapple, apple, chili, orange,
mandarin, grapes...; grains like: corn, peanut, millet…; vegetables like
spinach, rosemary, cinnamon because all of them contain a lot of nutrients that
can foster brain.
Foods nourishing brain
Fish
Most of fish contain many qualities that
can foster brain; however, the typical positions of the beginning of table are
salmon, sardine, codfish and herring because they are rich of omega-3 fat acid main
element of brain cells that helps improve the ability of studying as well as
memory. Fish also provides calcium and protein that are good for brain. For
example, freshwater fish contains unsaturated fatty acids that don’t cause
injury for cerebral artery, but they protect cerebral blood vessels and improve
cerebral cells’ operation. In middle 3 months of pregnancy, pregnant women
should eat a lot of fish to help fetus develop totally. However, you shouldn’t
misuse; it means that you shouldn’t eat over 80 grams of fish every day.
Fish
contains protein and calcium that are good for brain.
Egg
Chicken egg is useful for operating
function of brain because a good memory closely relates to amount of
acetylcholine in brain. Egg yolk contains lecithin and this substance’s
resolution in body produces a lot of acetylcholine. Acetylcholine quickly moves
to blood and brain, helps improve memory. 50 grams of egg yolk contains nearly
500 mg of choline and it is similar to the amount of choline in 100 grams of
liver. Moreover, it is as 2.5 times as the amount of choline that has in 100
grams of bird meat. You can provide your body with the amount of choline if you
only eat 1 or 2 chicken eggs. They are very useful for protecting brain and
improves memory.
Chicken
egg is useful for operating function of brain.
Milk
Cow’s milk is considered the most precious
nutritious source. Milk contains a lot of protein, calcium and other essential
elements for brain. Especially, fresh milk is a nutritious food that is nearly
perfect because it has high content of protein, calcium acid amin that are
necessary for brain. Calcium in fresh milk is easy to absorb and it is also an
important substance in brain’s metabolic process. In addition, fresh milk also
contains elements that are useful for nerve cells. Hence, drinking milk every
day is the way to provide calcium quickly and efficiently. If you lose sleep
because of stressed work, you only need to drink a glass of hot milk in the
evening. As a result, you will easily sleep.
Drinking
milk every day is the way to provide calcium quickly and efficiently.
Banana,
seaweed and beer yeast
They help prevent stress. Specifically, 100
grams of banana contains 1.7 mg of serotonin that is necessary for brain, helps
your body prevent stress and concentrate well. Garlic contains Alicin that
makes blood in brain circulate well, improves the ability of concentrating and
thinking.
Seaweed
prevents stress.
Kinds of grain
Peanut, corn, millet… are useful for brain.
Peanut contains plentiful content of lecithin and cephalin. These are necessary
substances for brain to make process of getting old slow. According to
experiment, eating peanut regularly will improve circulating process of blood,
improve memory and repulse process of getting old. Millet has content of
vitamin B1 and B2 more than rice. Protein in millet contains a lot of
tryptophan and methionine. Clinical observation shows that eating millet can
prevent getting old and can improve brain’s resistance. Corn contains a lot of
unsaturated fatty acids like acid linoleic that can protect blood vessels of
brain. Eating corn regularly, especially young corn will make brain resistant.
Peanut,
corn, millet… are useful for brain.
Fresh fruits
Orange, mandarin, pineapple… contain a lot
of substances that are useful for brain. Specifically, orange and mandarin
contain many vitamins A, B1 and C and other minerals that are good for brain.
They are also typical alkali foods that can eliminate acidic foods that are
harmful to nerve, help have a sound and excited mind, prevent stress and tiredness.
Therefore, in periods of examination, eating a suitable number of oranges and
mandarins will help spirit and strength become plentiful. Lemon and grapefruit
have similar function. Pineapple contains plentiful content of vitamin C and
magnesium low calories. Eating pineapple regularly will slake your thirst, make
you to be out of sound mind and improve memory. Apples also contain a lot of
quercetin, antioxidant, prevent old people from Alzheimer. You should eat
apples without sharpen their peel because peel of apples contains a lot of
quercetin. Besides protecting brain and improving memory, eating apples will
help reduce the risk of catching cancer. You should pay attention that you
should use fruit and vegetable water to wash them before eating. Avocado has
good fat, supports blood’s circulation, reduces blood pressure, prevents stoke
because it makes blood’s circulation good, enough oxygen to brain, improves
concentration and ability of thinking. Avocado is one of fruits (a few) that do
not have cholesterol, contains unsaturated single fat – this is a kind of fat
that is good for body that can reduce the content of cholesterol…
Kinds of vegetable
Spinach is vegetable for brain because it
contains high content of vitamin A, C, B1 and B2. According to a recent
research, spinach contains a high content of antioxidants such as vitamin E and
Selen that can prevent early aging process, improve cells’ development,
activate brain’s function, increase brain’s vigor, and help prevent brain’s
aging and Alzheimer. This is one of foods that provide the best nutrients for
brain. Spinach also has a high content of chlorophyll that is very useful for
brain.
Spinach
is vegetable for brain because it contains high content of vitamin A, C, B1 and
B2.
Celery contains Quercetin, substance helps
improve brain’s health. Strawberry contains content of vitamin C that gains
150% demand of body every day. Moreover, strawberry contains vitamins A, B1 and
B2 … that can increase resistance and prevent infection, contamination, flu,
prevent stress and aging.
In addition, cherry, grapes, lettuce and
minerals are also good for brain. Fe is also important to brain’s health.
Lacking Fe will lead to oxygen in brain because Fe helps carry oxygen to brain
because of attaching red blood cell. Water is similar, 70% of brain is water.
In reality, water improves brain’s function about the total aspect. Brain will
become slack if it loses water and it even releases cortisone hormone that
causes disadvantage for ability of storing information and building memory. In
addition, presence of water helps body carry out biological reaction and
eliminate toxicants that are produced after transforming out of body…
