Do THIS to Keep a Healthy Brain

No part of aging is fun.
But when your brain starts to slip, things can go from disheartening to downright terrifying FAST.
Struggling to remember phone numbers… or your way home from the supermarket can put you on edge… or even leave you in a bad situation.
Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way any longer.
Because there’s an easy way to shield your brain from the ravages of aging.
And it all starts with what you put on your plate.
A study published in the journal Neurology suggests people who eat healthy diets may have larger brain volumes.
And having a bigger brain is a rock-solid way to maintain your memory and cognitive functions well into your golden years.
But the million-dollar question is: what do researchers consider a healthy diet?
After looking at thousands of participants in many studies, they conclude that a brain-healthy diet contains:
- Loads of organic vegetables
- Lots of healthy proteins like grass-fed meats, wild caught fish and nuts
- Low amounts of processed foods (artificial colors, flavors, additives, and trans-fats)
- And minimal sugar.
Follow these simple guidelines, and you’ll NEVER have to worry about those memory slips again!
And if you want added protection, here are a few more healthy-brain tips…
Dr. Scott’s Healthy Brain Program:
- Exercise when you can. Don’t try and by an Olympian, just get out and move your body a bit.
- Keep inflammation under control. Try Berberine and Curcumin to keep inflammation in check and stay away from the oils that increase inflammation like corn, soy, and other vegetable oils.
- Take fish oil. This powerful supplement helps support your brain with healthy fats but also helps keep inflammation low.
- Support your mitochondrial. These energy-producing cell parts are vital for a healthy brain. Supplement with CoQ10, Alpha lipoic acid, Astaxanthin, Selenium, and Vitamin E to give your brain-energy a boost.
Eating well can give your brain much of what it needs to be healthy, but take the extra step of supplementing to make sure you give your brain the nutrition it needs to last a lifetime.
Health and Happiness,
