TOP TEN SMART FOODS

These Top Ten Foods are best for protecting the brain:

1.Blueberries- sweet wild blueberries are bursting with antioxidants that mop up nasty radicals

2.Dark Leafy Greens- high in vitamins B12 and B6, found in vegetables like asparagus and collard greens

3.Salmon- it's high in protein and the "good fats",a 4oz serving provides the daily amount needed of Vitamin D

4.Spinach- full antioxidant power, rich in Vitamin C and Fiber

5.Red Wine- drinking red wine in moderation increases longevity

6.Whole Grains- rich in Vitamin B6 and Magnesium

7.Hot Cocoa- protects brain cells from oxidative stress

8.Almonds/Walnuts- rich in Omega 3's

9.Olive Oil- contains potent antioxidants called polyphenols, reduces blood pressure and cholesterol levels 

10.Garlic- this herb fends off aging via antioxidant properties

I have to add one more:

11.Dark Chocolate- for avid chocolate lovers....choose dark chocolate. This chocolate gobbles up free radicals, destructive molecules that are implicated in heart disease and other ailments.

Have a Great Day, Make Smart Choices
