Having a healthy and balanced diet plays a major part in brain health and reducing the risk of cognitive decline. Therefore, fuel up on fruits, vegetables, whole grains and limit saturated fats and sugar. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) and Mediterranean diets have been found to have beneficial effects and contribute to risk reduction.
Consuming foods such as salmon, tuna or sardines, that contain docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA, a type of essential omega-3 fatty acid, is also helpful in keeping your brain healthy and thriving. To spice things up, you can also include turmeric in your diet. It contains curcumin, a chemical that helps you fight inflammation and keep the nerve cells functioning and healthy.
