🧠 HELP YOUR BRAIN AND IMPROVE YOUR LIFE
Recent studies have observed that the number of people likely to develop various mental infirmities in the next 20 years is increasing considerably.
It's not surprising that so much money is intended for research in this field, in order to understand how to ensure as long as possible health to the brain, going to prevent or at least slow down cognitive ageing. Many of the funds are allocated to pharmacological research, but nowadays an increasing number of studies are also giving importance to lifestyle as an essential factor in keeping the brain healthy and all its functions.
You already know that the human brain is constantly changing, and that these changes are greatly derived from our lifestyle. Let's see what habits are that help keep our brain trained and efficient.
💜 MOVE. Remember that the brain is part of our body and therefore when we exercise our physique, we also strengthen the brain. Physical activity increases neurogenesis!
💜 THINK POSITIVELY ABOUT THE FUTURE. Stress and anxiety, no matter if caused by external events or your thoughts, kill neurons and prevent new ones from creating. Chronic stress can be considered the opposite of exercise.
💜 ALWAYS DO NEW Mind-stimulating ACTIVITIES. The brain is like a muscle, and as such needs continuous training. New stimuli (learning new things) promote learning and it leads to the formation of increasingly articulated and fast brain connections. Logic games or crosswords, or sudoku, are great tools that help keep your mind healthy.
💜 TRAVEL AND EXPLORE. Adapting to new places forces us to pay more attention.
💜
Develop and maintain STARING FRIENDSHIP. Man is a "social animal" and needs to interact with others.
💜 IMPORTANT! Taking care of your own FOOD. The brain only accounts for 2 % of body mass, but does it use more than 20 % of the oxygen and nutrients we introduce into the body? It is very important to avoid "bad food" and also to integrate the nutrients that are less and less into the various foods available on the market.
Not surprising that NUTRIPTION plays a key role. Food types and eating habits that reduce heart disease and diabetes seem to bring benefits to brain health as well. A diet poor in saturated fats and sugar promotes better circulation of blood within the brain's blood vessels, while fatty foods can obstruct the arteries causing possible ischemia. Several studies have found that fish consumption, particularly omega-rich fish such as salmon and tuna, is a protective factor of brain deterioration. Hazelnuts and dark fruits, such as blueberries, as well as the Mediterranean diet that emphasizes the consumption of plant-based foods such as wheat, legumes and olive oil, seem to benefit the brain function. Various studies confirm that taking fish oil-based food supplements, containing high percentage of omega 3, helps preserve cognitive functions and volume of the brain. Moreover, low levels of vitamin D seem to increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, as reported in Littlejohns study and collaborators in 2014.
💜 KEEP THE WEIGHT NORM. Weight gain induces significant increase in blood pressure, and high blood pressure increases the risk of heart attack. Even small heart attacks, which are often undiagnosed, can trigger the process of cognitive decay faster. For example, in a study conducted in 2001, Petersen and colleagues found that individuals with more microheart attacks obtained low scores in cognitive tests.
