Yes, that is absolutely true. With fresh food that contains anti oxidants for instance, or omega 3. But your brain also needs intellectual food. By giving it that, your brain will keep on working hard and a hard working brain is a healthy brain. There is no reason why our brain should not stay healthy till we die of old age. As long as it is properly fed. Your brain needs to be fed. Yes, that is absolutely true. With fresh food that contains anti oxidants for instance, or omega 3.

Do certain preparations of these foods decrease their brain boosting abilities? Does steaming spinach still make it nutritious? I love steamed spinach :) Just saw your clip on ABC News – great tips!

For an added treat caramelize up some bananas and toss a spoon full into your oats. The bananas will last a week or two (longer than fresh bananas do).

At 57 years old I have no blood pressure issue, low body fat ratio, no osteoperosis, not over weight( 5' 10"- 125 lbs) no cholesterol issues. I owe it all to the great eating habits my mother taught: portion control, cook for yourself to control the salt and fats that restaurants use, make your plate 3/4 colorful veggies and small (blackberry size) portions of red meat. Oh, yeah... fish 2X week. I have always drank milk or ate dairy each day with fruit for desserts. I do recommend dark chocolate once in a while! we are what we eat!

If you are going to eat meat at all, you should eat a lean piece about the size of a deck of cards or an iPod a day. That's all. Something like a 4 ounce serving. It's better to eat fish, though. The rest of your protein should come from legumes, nuts, seeds, and a bit of low fat dairy. Whereas lots of people eat literally twice or three times that much meat. 12 ounce steaks, anyone? Yeah. And plenty of people that eat those will have a ham sandwich for lunch, too. It's ridiculous. Too much protein puts stress on your kidneys, leaches calcium from your bones, and, it you eat protein mostly in the form of whole milk products and meat, it makes you fat.
