Psychiatrist lists products that improve brain function

Psychiatrist Javier Quintero said that some foods can improve brain function, according to El Confidencial. According to the expert, for the normal functioning of this body, it is important to ensure the regular intake of a number of vitamins, and this can be done with the help of a balanced diet.

Quintero noted that the brain needs vitamin B9. You can get it from leafy green vegetables, lentils, asparagus and avocados. Equally important for the proper functioning of the brain is vitamin B6, which is found in turkey, chickpeas, bananas and pistachios. In addition, according to the doctor, it is necessary to monitor the level of vitamin D, and for this you should more often eat fatty fish, such as mackerel and salmon.

The specialist also advised to include dairy products, shellfish and beef in the diet to provide the body with vitamin B12. Quintero called eggs the ideal product for the brain, since they contain all the listed nutrients. Thus, according to the psychiatrist, eggs can become the most universal element of nutrition that supports cognitive functions.

Quintero’s recommendations fit into the general trend of attention to nutrition as a factor in maintaining brain health and preventing age-related changes. Regular intake of B vitamins, as well as vitamin D, is considered by experts as a necessary condition for maintaining concentration, memory and stable functioning of the nervous system. A balanced diet, including green vegetables, legumes, nuts, fish, dairy products and eggs, is able to provide the body with everything you need without additional additives. At the same time, the doctor emphasizes the importance of an integrated approach, in which the focus is not on a single product, but on a variety of nutrition that covers the needs of the brain in key microelements and vitamins.
