Brain Health
Brain health is such an important matter for our health. We hear a lot about mental health which often relates to illness and disorders, but not enough for taking care of the physical brain. In fact, if we take good care of our brains, some disorders can go away on their own. For instance, anxiety and depression, they could be nutrition deficiency. As a holistic health coach, I always utilize nutrition assessment to determine the deficiencies of my clients. Then give recommendations on lifestyle change and needed supplements. In most cases, the effect was immediate.
The brain needs good fat. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are considered good fats for the brain because they can help the brain function more effectively. Fatty fish, high quality Olive oil, walnuts, avocados, pumpkin seeds are all good choices. Other areas we need to work on include adequate sleep at night, stress reduction and management, physical fitness, healthy diet, and quality supplements.
Who are you? Your brain determines it. The way you think, act and everything you do are the outcomes of your brain. So love your brain, eat and do the right things.
