When was the last time you even considered your brain health?
Let’s start with another question — When was the last time you reached for your fourth cup of coffee while finding yourself struggling to study for an exam or finish a project just to be let down by the minuscule results?
Or, maybe you finally set aside a few hours for deep work time, but once you’re ready to dive in, you absolutely cannot focus.
Look, you’re not alone! And, it may be time to focus more on what you’re eating.
On episode 014 of The Transformational Nutrition Podcast, ITN founder and CEO Cynthia Garcia spoke about making a change in her intermittent fasting routine to help give her the energy she needed to work on a big project.
She realized that her low energy levels were stemming from simply not eating enough to fuel her brain health for her major workload.
That conversation sparked a few questions from our listeners about foods that help with brain health and function.
On today’s episode, Cynthia shares the top 10 foods that help with memory, focus, productivity, and the ability to keep up with busy days.
You might already eat some of these foods daily but don’t even realize that they’re fueling more than just your physical body!
