Brain Foods

ALMONDS
These oval nuts are an excellent source of vitamin E. It has been reported that higher levels of vitamin E correspond with less cognitive decline. But! Be careful that you don not go oerboard withthis brain-booster. Too much almonds may just expand your waistline.

BROWN RICE
These pink to reddish cuties promote cardiovascular health and good blood flow throughout the organ system, including the brain. Make sure to ad this and other whole grains like popcorn, whole grain bread and oatmeal to your daily diet.

GREEN TEA
This has high level of anti-oxidants, catechins, vitamins C and A, L-Theanine, even Flouride. But perhaps, the most important is ECGC (Epigallocatechin Gallate), a compound found uniquely in green tea that has been known to posses superb anti-cancer, anti-aging and over-all health benefits.
