We just read this article from Find Bliss Magazine that contains super informative (and easy!) tips on how to better care for your brain. The author of the health best-sellers “Brain Longevity” and “Meditation as Medicine,” Dr. Khalsa notes:
“The four pillars of a neuro-protective lifestyle include low-fat diet replete with brain-nurturing foods, daily physical and mental exercise, stress management (notably certain types of yoga and meditation), nutritional supplementation, and in some cases, pharmaceutical drugs.” Adequate sleep and a healthy environment also enhance and protect cognitive function, and regular sexual activity is another effective (and blissful) brain booster. “Sexual activity helps reduce stress, which promotes better brain health,” says Dr. Khalsa.
Khalsa gives a very manageable 'to do' list including diet (with an actual sample menu), a list of supplements you can pick up at Whole Foods, and lots activities that promote brain health.
This one is worth a few minutes of read time!
