Eat right. Nutrition directly affects how our brain works. By the way, they say that of all our organs, the brain is the most voracious. With aging, brain cells stop communicating normally with each other, which slows down thought processes, impairs short-term memory and disrupts cell regeneration. Foods rich in antioxidants help maintain good health and keep brain cells working. Excellent sources are: - Vitamin A and beta-carotene: carrots, spinach, pumpkin. - Vitamin C: citrus fruits, broccoli, strawberries. - Vitamin E: nuts, seeds, vegetable oil, wheat. #RandomThoughts
