Can’t remember where you left your keys or iphone? Has your word recall been a bit lacking recently, and your short term memory fuzzy? These are early signs of neurodegeneration – loss of function of brain cell neurons, including the DEATH of neurons that leads to impaired cognitive function.
Cognitive decline is an extremely common phenomenon these days. Neurotoxicity, impaired cellular energy production (remember the Kreb’s cycle in high school biology?) viral infections and key nutrient deficiencies can all play a role in influencing brain health.
Sound scary? It’s really never too late to turn things around! Providing your nervous system with the right nutrients – such as flavonoids and essential fatty acids, doing seasonal cleanses, de-stressing and working on hormone balance can all help to clear the cobwebs in your noggin.
One heavy-hitting nutritional approaches involves consuming coconut oil. Coconut oil contains medium chain triglycerides which are a superb brain fuel. They break down into ketones, which in addition to counteracting sugar highs and lows, are readily available brain food. Check out this fab recipe to get your brain boost.
