Power Foods for the Brain

Power Foods for the Brain

A decline in brain health is not an inevitable part of aging. Yet, how we eat and live can help us protect our memory and stay sharp into old age.

Plant-based foods are beneficial to the brain and may help prevent Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. You will learn about the research showing the negative impact of saturated and trans fats on brain function. You will discover which plant foods are most beneficial to the brain and gain knowledge about which supplements to take and avoid for brain health.
