☆ Harvard nutritionist: The No. 1 nutrient you need for a healthy brain—and the best way to get it
  + stars: | 2024-04-25 | by ( Dr. Uma Naidoo | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Three types of neuroprotective nutrients have received the most interest from experts like myself: antioxidants, B vitamins, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. While supplements can help provide these nutrients, I always tell people to first go to real foods, especially for fatty acids like omega-3s. When you eat a whole food you get additional vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, and protein. It's important to underline that we can't out-supplement or exercise our way out of a poor diet. She is also the author of the bestselling "This is Your Brain on Food″ and most recently, "Calm Your Mind with Food."

Here are five types of foods that doctors and nutritionists eat every day for stellar brain health, heart health, longevity and overall wellness. Blueberries, in particular, are what longevity researcher, Neil Paulvin, refers to as the "holy grail" of longevity foods. They're also great for eye health, muscle recovery, brain health and strengthening your cells, he adds. All berries get their color from flavonoids which are a group of phytonutrients that have been linked to improvements in brain health and a reduction in cognitive decline. They're high in protein, fiber, antioxidants and minerals like magnesium and iron, Heller told CNBC Make It in 2022.

☆ Foods that improve brain function and mood

Each episode will focus on one of those states — the distracted brain, the frightened brain, the depressed brain and others — to spotlight what is going on in our heads and how it affects our bodies. But it’s not so easy to know what to eat for brain health, or even how to measure it. Many of us have been told that foods such as blueberries, salmon, nuts and leafy greens are so-called brain foods. Nutritional psychiatrist Dr. Uma Naidoo has built a career around figuring out which foods improve brain function and positively influence the way we feel. What can you do to nourish your brain and boost your mood?

Excess consumption of omega-6s can trigger the body to produce chemicals that can lead to inflammation in the brain. Foods with added and refined sugarsOur brain uses energy in the form of glucose, a type of sugar, to fuel cellular activities. But a high sugar diet can lead to excess glucose in the brain. This can cause memory impairments and less plasticity of the hippocampus, the part of the brain that controls memory.
