According to a study conducted by the University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign, the nutrient content in some foods rich in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) is closely related to the intelligence of the brain as well as the health of these organs.
Types of foods rich in monounsaturated fatty acids such as olive oil, nuts, and avocados.
"Our results prove that MUFA is associated with very specific brain tissue, dorsal attention tissue, as well as facilitate everything is managed functionally," says Aron Barbey, a professor in the study.
Dorsal networks are related to intelligence, which is vital to the task of helping one to focus and be able to solve everyday problems. So our job is to keep this dorsal tissue healthy and functioning accordingly.
In research whose results have been published in the journal NeuroImage, scientists study the relationship between fatty acids and brain tissue that serves to underlie intelligence. Whether brain tissue can be a bridge for fatty acids and high intelligence.
The result, it was revealed that MUFA or monounsaturated fatty acids have an effect on cognitive intelligence.
Reported by the page Indian Express, Barbey called that MUFA healthy dorsal tissue that supports the ability to focus and think fast. So with a lot of eating foods with high nutrition MUFA, a person can be helped cognitive function.
