The passage of time leaves its mark on all vital systems, and the brain does not escape this destiny. Its deterioration does not happen suddenly at advanced ages, but begins early and is progressive. Around 40 years of age begins to detect a lower efficiency in some types of memory, but we are always in time to take action, starting with the selection of food.
A serving of vegetables a day rejuvenates your brain 11 years. We need essential nutrients such as amino acids, iron, vitamins B3, B5, B6 and C, and choline to produce adequate levels of some of the key neurotransmitters to maintain psychological and emotional well-being and preserve our cognitive abilities. The current scientific literature also highlights the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, magnesium and some polyphenols in the regulation of mood, anxiety and stress resistance.
