5 tips for healthier and better functioning of brain functions

1. Eastern doctors claim that memory can be stimulated by the so-called “hakini mudra” (a special position of the hands that stimulates the channeling of energy in the human body). It is achieved by joining the fingertips of both hands (the grip is slightly firmer) while the fingers remain spaced and stretched. This is a position that we sometimes instinctively take to think better. It is very effective for increasing concentration because it improves communication between the right and left hemispheres of the brain, strengthens memory and balances breathing. When we focus our attention on a particular position of the hands, we move away from the hectic everyday life and chaotic thoughts that usually occupy the mind. Find a quiet place to exercise to concentrate better. It is very important to pay attention to breathing, which should be slow, deep and balanced.
2. Fish from cold seas-consuming fish once a week reduces the risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Fish leaf, mackerel, salmon, trout and tuna are rich in omega-3 fatty acids which is linked to brain health functions.
3. Spinach and broccoli-leafy green vegetables and vegetables from the cruciferous family protect the brain from degenerative processes.
4. Magnesium in the morning – this mineral shows exceptional results in strengthening concentration and memory. It is especially effective in middle age. The positive effect of magnesium on key receptors in the brain responsible for learning has been established. The required daily amount is about 400 mg. It is best to take magnesium in the morning to prepare the brain for the daily temptations.
5. Walnuts and seeds-nuts (walnuts, almonds, pecans) are rich in vitamin E. It is considered the best food for the brain. Walnuts are also rich in alpha-linolenic acid (a type of omega 3 fatty acid). One handful of walnuts contains an average of 2,600 mg of omega-3 acids.
