If you’re like most of us, you’d do just about anything to keep a health brain.
So you exercise… take your supplements… and you never miss the Sunday crossword.
But if you’re not eating enough of a certain type of food, all of your hard work could be for nothing.
Because research shows these superfoods can provide the EXACT nutrients your brain needs… and can even STOP brain shrinkage.
Let me show you.
I’m talking about vegetables!
For years we’ve know that these wonder plants can help lower your blood pressure, improve your vision, and even balance your blood sugar.
Now we know they are the key to keeping a healthy brain throughout your golden years.
You see, your brain needs a good supply of vitamins and minerals to thrive and repair itself.
As it turns out, the specific nutrient content of many vegetables provides your brain with the compounds it needs to the repair damage caused by toxins and aging.
And plant pigments seem to have the most benefits.
Lutein in zeaxanthin are two such compounds. They have been scientifically proven to boost your brain function… even STOP BRAIN SHRINKAGE.
Just imagine what that could mean for your future.
These pigments are found in high concentrations in a myriad of foods that most of us already perceive as healthy, such as kale, spinach and avocado.
But if you are looking to benefit your brain, its best to get them in strong doses only found in supplements.
Let me show you how to get the most nutrients for a healthy brain.
Dr. Scott’s Brain Protection Plan:
- Creatine is an amino acid is good for the brain and helps support energy production.
- Omega 3 fish oil is an essential fatty acid your brain needs to support its function and protect against oxidation.
- CoQ10 is powerful antioxidant and helps to provide energy throughout the body.
- Antioxidants can be vitamins such as Vitamin A and Vitamin C, but I especially like the phytonutrients (polyphenols, carotenes…) found in superfood combinations.
- Herbs such as curcumin and bacopa work to decrease inflammation and act as powerful antioxidants.
Health and Happiness,
Dr. Scott Olson, ND
