The brain is one of the organs of the body that must be constantly exercised and well nourished. For many, this may not seem important, but this neglect could cause degenerative diseases, such as progressive loss of memory, so let’s have a look at some natural juices that can help you strengthen it.
Apple, walnuts, carrot and almonds smoothie. Apple is a fruit of great nutritional benefits, which contains vitamins, minerals, fibers, water and a lot of quercetin, a component of antioxidant properties that protects the brain. According to nutritionist Melissa Baltazar, it helps delay the aging of brain cells. In turn, carrots have a lot of phosphorus, which helps stimulate neurons and therefore improve memory.
Nuts such as almonds and walnuts are rich in Omega 3, 6 and vitamins that are ideal for maintaining a healthy mental health. To prepare it, thoroughly wash two apples and two carrots, chop them into pieces and pour them in the blender along with the nuts, belnd until the ingredients come together and drink it.
Blueberry smoothie with avocado and flax seeds. Blueberries are part of the miraculous fruits that fight aging of the brain and strengthen the memory; this is due to their high content of potassium and antioxidants. They are excellent by themselves, however, when mixed with other fruits like avocado, for example, which is rich in Omega 3, they are potentiated and can increase the memory capacity for much longer. However, it is important to note that you should not consume too much avocado, as it is a very high-calorie fruit..
To add more benefits to this smoothie, add flax seeds or linseed, these complement the juice with their contribution of Omega 6. To make this juice, you should wash a handful of blueberries, peel and remove the seed of an avocado, and add them to a blender with a glass of water and the flax seeds, blend everything until you get a homogeneous mixture and drink it.
Yogurt, banana, orange and almonds smoothie. Dairy products have a high level of potassium. If you want your juice less creamy, you can easily replace the yogurt with skim milk. Bananas, like dairy products, contain potassium and also high levels of magnesium, phosphorus and B vitamins, which are great stimulants of brain functions, promoting better memory. Oranges, because of their high nutritional value, are the perfect complement to this shake. To prepare it, peel and chop the banana into pieces, blend together with the juice of an orange, a low fat yogurt or half a cup of milk and enjoy!
Food is closely linked with the good performance of our body and also with our memory, so having a healthy diet, accompanied by these juices will help you to have good mental health. If you want to know more about these natural drinks, you should see a nutritionist.
