Eat Smart for a Healthier Brain

There's no denying that as we age chronologically, our body ages right along with us. But research is showing that you can increase your chances of maintaining a healthy brain well into your old age if you add these "smart" foods to your daily eating regimen.

  FOR SHORT-TERM MEMORY

Drink This!: COFFEE

Fresh-brewed coffee is the ultimate brain fuel. Caffeine has been shown to retard the aging process and enhance short-term memory performance. In one study, British researchers found that just one cup of coffee helps improve attention and problem-solving skills. 

FOR LONG-TERM MEMORY

Eat This!: BLUEBERRIES

Antioxidants in blueberries help protect the brain from free-radical damage and cut your risk of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. They can also improve cognitive processing (translation: thinking). Wild blueberries, if you can find them, have even more brain-boosting antioxidants than the cultivated variety, so book that vacation in Maine now. The berries will ripen in July.

TO THINK FASTER

Eat This!: SALMON OR MACKEREL

The omega-3 fatty acids found in fatty fishes are a primary building block of brain tissue, so they’ll amp up your thinking power. Salmon is also rich in niacin, which can help ward off Alzheimer’s disease and slow the rate of cognitive decline.
FOR SHARPER SENSES

Eat This!: 1 TBSP OF GROUND FLAXSEED DAILY

Flax is the best source of alphalinoleic, or ALA—a healthy fat that improves the workings of the cerebral cortex, the area of the brain that processes sensory information, including that of pleasure. To meet your quota, sprinkle it on salads or mix it into a smoothie or shake.

Some raw veggies are just healthier to eat cook

It seems intuitive that a veggie in its raw state would be more nutritious than its cooked counterpart. But the truth is some veggies are actually healthier when things heat up a bit. High temperatures do diminish some of the vitamins and minerals in veggies by 15 to 30 percent, but boiling is the biggest culprit.

Sautéing, steaming, roasting and grilling minimize the losses. And cooking actually increases the levels of some nutrients by breaking down the cell walls of the plant where the nutrients are locked in. Here are three delicious examples:

TOMATOES
 Grape tomatoes are usually found is salads, research shows that when cooked the lycopene content of these juicy gems increases by about 35 percent. Lycopene, the antioxidant responsible for tomatoes' ruby hue, is linked to protection against several types of cancer, including prostate, pancreas, breast, cervix and lung, as well as a lower risk of heart disease, our nation’s #1 killer of men and women.

How to Cook: Slice grape or cherry tomatoes in half and sauté in extra virgin olive oil with garlic and onions, then toss with strands of steamed spaghetti squash. It’s amazing hot or as chilled leftovers the following day.


CARROTS 

We’d rather eats carrots with humus, the cooking process can boost its levels of beta-carotene by over 30 percent. This key antioxidant supports our night vision, guards against heart disease, several cancers (bladder, cervix, prostate, colon, esophagus) and is a particularly potent lung protector.
How to Cook: Brush or mist with extra virgin olive oil and roast at 425 F for 25 to 30 minutes. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and continue roasting another 3-5 minutes. To preserve even more antioxidants chop after cooking.


SPINACH
Spinach salad is one of my staple spring go-to meals, and I toss fresh baby spinach leaves into fruit smoothies, but cooking spinach has been shown to boost levels of lutein, an antioxidant that prevents against cataracts and macular degeneration. Heating leafy greens can also help you absorb more calcium. That’s because in its fresh state the calcium binds to a natural substance called oxalic acid, which reduces its absorption, but cooking helps to unbind the two. Cooked spinach is also more compact, so you get more nutrients per bite — three cups raw packs 89 milligrams of calcium compared to 245 milligrams in 1 cup cooked.
How to Cook: Warm hot chili oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add crushed garlic and sliced red bell pepper strips and sauté until tender, about 2-3 minutes. Add a few large handfuls of fresh spinach and stir until wilted.
