A very interesting email I received

Yesterday upon checking my email I came across an email that was very interesting , I hope you enjoy it as I did . PS I have to do my own research LOL 

 

 Did you know that there are
actually foods that you can eat which will help you
to become smarter and have a brain which is functioning
at full capacity?

   If so, these 10 brain foods might surprise you...

   1.    Pork

   Pork is rich in Thiamine, a vitamin which encourages
healthy blood for your brain and helps it to
operate at its full potential. Of course, it's important
to make sure that you're not eating pork which is high
fat or which is unnaturally processed.

   For best results, buy pork which is as organic as
possible. and avoid fatty cuts.

   2.    Red Berries

   Berries such as: strawberries, raspberries, and cherries
have high quantities of polyphenols, which help you to
control the hormones in your brain which tell you when
to eat and when to stop.

   Bringing these hormones into balance helps your brain
to properly process hunger and satiation so that you
won't be distracted by cravings.

   3.    Nuts

   Almonds, Pecans and Walnuts (highest omega 3 and 6),
contain omega fatty acids which are important in brain
function. They're also high in nitric oxide which stimulates
healthy blood flow...which is always good for your brain.

   It might also interest you to know that nitric oxide
promotes sexual health in men and is one of the key
ingredients in Viagra.

   TIP: whenever possible, avoid nuts which are preserved
using BHT.

   4.    Eggs

   Eggs are the highest natural source of choline, a nutrient
which boosts the memory center of the brain. Choline also
increases neuron and synapses firing and helps your brain
get fired up for high level thinking...which is probably why
they're such a popular breakfast food.

   For best results, make sure that you're buying organic
eggs because they are going to have the highest concentration
of choline possible.

   5.    Blue berries and black berries

   Blueberries and blackberries also contain the essential
fatty acids omega 3 and Omega 6. Again, these fatty acids
are important in brain function and can also help to lower
your cholesterol level.

   Just make sure that you're actually eating the berries,
because consuming juices will raise your sugar intake to
unnatural levels. It's also important to consume berries
which are free of pesticides.

   6.    Wild Caught Salmon

   Again, a great source of omega 3 fatty acids
which are essential for brain function. However, when
consuming salmon it's important to purchase wild caught
salmon because farm raised salmon don't have anywhere near
as much omega 3.

   7.    Coffee Beans

   Yes, that cup of coffee that you're drinking in the
morning actually contains amino acids, vitamins and
minerals which are essential to brain function. Recent
nutritional studies also revealed that the Caffeine
content in coffee reduces chances Alzheimer's and dementia.

   8.    Cacao Bean

   This is really exciting, because this is the bean which
chocolate is made from! Rich in amino acids, minerals and
vitamins, the cacao bean is great for promoting good brain
function. Just a tip, it has to be dark chocolate.

   Milk chocolates and white chocolates contain little or
no cacao bean and will only make your clothes shrink.

   9.    Avocado

   Avocados are also a terrific source of Omega 3 essential
fatty acids.  Avocados are also a great substitution for
cheese and give you a natural source of fat that is great
for your figure.

   10.    Books

   Okay, so they're not a food, but you have to make sure
that you're feeding your brain something which it can
actually "chew on," otherwise all the brain foods in the
world aren't going to stimulate productive thought.

   Choose books that inspire you and that help you to
learn more about the things that you want to accomplish
in your life.

Bon Appetite!
