href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2805706\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">brain foods<\/a> and food in general is nutrients, which are the myriad compounds within the food that are essential to life and health. These can further be broken down into macronutrients and micronutrients, the former consisting of compounds such as protein, carbohydrates and fats, and the latter vitamins, minerals and other important elements.<\/p><p>Using the analogy of the body as a piece of machinery, macronutrients provide the basic building blocks used to make it and the fuel on which it runs, while the role of micronutrients is to maintain the individual parts such as the organs and tissues, as well as ensuring that they all work in harmony to regulate bodily processes to keep the machine running smoothly.<\/p><p>In this analogy, our brains are the control center, the piece of hardware that organizes the system and sends instructions to individual parts of it, while our minds could be considered the software that controls it. Brain foods are thus any source of nutrition that provides the right mix of essential nutrients to help the brain function at maximum capacity, or as close to it as possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-01bbd91 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"01bbd91\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-909a2f0\" data-id=\"909a2f0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e3f0c35 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e3f0c35\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The brain-body connection\u200b<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-92fea2c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"92fea2c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5664deb\" data-id=\"5664deb\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e4a503a elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e4a503a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><br><\/p><p><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight ); font-size: 1rem;\">Before we move on to discussing the best brain foods in detail, it&#8217;s important that we also explore and discuss the brain-body connection.

There are good reasons for this, but they come with a few important caveats.<\/p><p>Many fish are indeed high in omega-3 fatty acids, which are the building blocks of brain and nerve cells. Omega-3s have also been shown to play an important role in learning and memory. They also likely slow age-related mental decline and help to prevent Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Conversely, omega-3 deficiency has been linked to learning impairments and mental health issues.<\/p><p>There&#8217;s only one problem&#8230;<\/p><p>Most fish is highly contaminated with heavy metals, pesticides, industrial chemicals and microplastics. There&#8217;s also the not insignificant fact that we humans have removed around 90% of fish biomass from the Ocean in just the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/266684781_A_century_of_fish_biomass_decline_in_the_ocean\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">last century<\/a>, meaning there isn&#8217;t a whole lot left and there soon won&#8217;t be any if we continue at the current rate.<\/p><p>Thus the term seafood.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-8c2f247 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8c2f247\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d27308e\" data-id=\"d27308e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4560f3a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4560f3a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" src=\"https:\/\/focusme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Seaweed-is-a-great-fish-alternative.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-294935\" alt=\"Seaweed is a great fish alternative\" srcset=\"https:\/\/focusme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Seaweed-is-a-great-fish-alternative.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/focusme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Seaweed-is-a-great-fish-alternative-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/focusme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Seaweed-is-a-great-fish-alternative-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/focusme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Seaweed-is-a-great-fish-alternative-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/focusme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Seaweed-is-a-great-fish-alternative-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/focusme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Seaweed-is-a-great-fish-alternative-1000x667.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6553e90 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6553e90\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8006c5e\" data-id=\"8006c5e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e06f832 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e06f832\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Fish alternatives<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9c03aae elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9c03aae\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bfcdbe5\" data-id=\"bfcdbe5\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1796812 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1796812\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Fish, like other forms of animal-based nutrition, are just middlemen.

They are also an incredibly nutritious food that seems to offer fantastic benefits to brain health.<\/p>\n<p>The main way in which they do this is through combating oxidative stress with powerful antioxidants known as flavonols. They also contain other types of flavonoids, which are all antioxidants, as well as several other beneficial vitamins and minerals.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t fancy chewing on toasted cacao beans or nibs by themselves (they&#8217;re actually quite good once you get used to them), you can use them to add some chocolaty goodness to smoothies, add them to baked goods or throw them into granola or trail mix.
