There are a number of foods that have a positive effect on brain health.

First of all, you should pay attention to foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids.

“It protects the nerve impulse that is necessary for the full functioning of a person,” Vechernyaya Moskva quotes physician Elena Solomatina as saying.

The diet should include fatty fish, walnuts and flaxseed oil to replenish this element in the body.

Vitamins of group B (can be found, for example, in the liver) and D (found in eggs, cod liver) are also important. Their deficiency has a negative effect on the psyche. Depression, acute psychosis, etc. are possible.

Magnesium, which is easily obtained from carrots or spinach, relieves nervous tension.

In addition, fiber is needed for normal functioning. It can be found in any vegetables. But Solomatina especially singled out garlic in this case, which also has an anti-inflammatory effect, prevents the formation of blood clots, and removes inflammation in the vessels.

Naturally, antioxidants are needed.

We are talking about vitamins of group P. Such elements protect the brain from destruction, preserve vitamin C. Useful substances can be found in blueberries, bilberries or pomegranates.
