  • Brain Power - Fruits for Brain Development!
  • Our brain is an energy-intensive organ that uses around 20 per cent of the body’s calories. That means it requires plenty of right fuel to stay alert and maintain concentration throughout the day. The food we eat can have a significant impact on the structure and health of our brains. Including fruits for brain development in our diet can support both short- and long-term brain function.
  • Blueberries: Consumption of blueberries is very useful in improving or delaying short-term memory loss. This dark-coloured fruit delivers anthocyanins, a group of plant compounds with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Antioxidants, in turn, provide some of the best brain food that accumulates in the brain and help in improving communication between the brain cells.
  • Blackcurrants: One of the best sources of Vitamin C, which has been researched to improve mental agility and even treat dementia and Alzheimer’s. Regular consumption of blackcurrants may help in reducing stress and anxiety.
  • Avocados: This creamy, fibre-rich fruit is full of monosaturated fats and lutein that can aid in significant improvement in cognitive health and problem-solving skills. It can be a part of your salad, a couple of slices on your toast/wrap or eat it as guacamole at any time of the day.
  • Strawberries: Don’t wait for springtime to savour these juicy berries. You can have them all year round. Studies show eating strawberries regularly can delay cognitive ageing by up to 2.5 years.
  • Blackberries: If you don’t like strawberries, try eating blackberries. They are also a rich source of Vitamin C and flavonoids, which help in delaying cognitive ageing and keeps your brain healthy.
  • Red grapes: Red grapes are antioxidant-packed fruit. Snacking on them twice a day is excellent for someone who is having memory-related issues. They can also help to improve the overall attention span.
  • Raspberries: This fruit is full of flavonoids that give your brain a little extra power and delay cognitive ageing.
  • Oranges: Eating just one medium orange a day can get you the required daily dose of Vitamin C. Vitamin C prevents age-related mental decline and helps in fighting off the free radicals that can damage brain cells.
