Some food really is brain boosting – it goes directly to our brain cells to work its magic. These foods have the ability to improve our memory and make us smarter. The best way to benefit from these foods it to include them in your daily diet. Some of the brainiest foods include the following:

• Egg-cellent: Eggs are high in protein, low in calories, and rich in Vitamin E, omega-3 fatty acids and B vitamins.
• Go nuts: Almonds, like some fish (salmon, for example), are also high in omega-3 fatty acids and full of antioxidants.
Raw almonds provide the most benefits, but roasted ones are also good.
• Green up your diet: Green vegetables are full of good things, and the darker they are, (like broccoli and spinach), the higher the concentration of protective antioxidants.
• An apple a day: Apples have chemicals that protect the brain from the kinds of damage that can lead to diseases such Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.
• Berry good for you:
Blueberries and cherries are packed full of antioxidants as well as memory-boosting nutrients.
• The best news ever:
Chocolate has been shown to boost blood circulation and blood flow to your brain. Beware though, because it is the flavanoids in the cocoa that is good for you, not the other high-fat ingredients that go into chocolate!

Mind games
Doing things that stimulate your brain – such as puzzles or reading – gives your brain a work out. Just as exercise keeps your body supple and fit, brain gym keeps your mind in good condition. If you stimulate your brain, you will help to keep it sharp and boost your memory, too.
