What do you really know about nutrition?


Most people think they know what healthy nutrition is yet after my deeper inquiry it turns out they

were all wrong. Others are simply confused. It is mostly because the nutrition information in the media has been so politicized, most research studies funded by the food and drug industry, and consequently, the results of the research twisted and presented in a way that plays to the above industries’ agendas. This sad reality has created the ever increasing rates of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and other related problems. We are overweight, our kids are overweight and things seem to only be getting worse.


Many outspoken researchers are finally starting to speak up. Change is gradually starting to happen but it is still slow, very slow. We have been brainwashed to think that saturated fat is the source of all evil, that we don’t really need much protein, that our diets should be based on huge amounts of grains, that vegetable oils are good for us, and so on, and so on. The examples are endless…..and the public is more frustrated and confused than ever.


So you think you’re eating healthy.
      Or are you?

Do you:
 

•    Eat a lot of grains like pasta, rice,
      breads, pastries, cookies and the like?
•    Avoid animal fats and saturated fats
     of any kind?
•    Think that tropical oils are bad?
•    Eat a lot of vegetable oils because you think they are heart-healthy?
•    Eat nuts, seeds, avocados and vegetable oils as your only sources of fat?
•    Try to follow a low fat diet because you think it will help you lose weight?
      Drink a lot of fruit juices because you think they are full of vitamins?
•    Eat huge amounts of fruit because you were told they are good for you?
     

Think that crispy cereal with non-fat milk is a health food?

If you answered YES to any of the above questions and are having problems with your weight OR your health, you need nutrition re-education.


At Fitness Science Inc. we believe you are unique. Your biochemistry is unique to you and you alone. Your genes, your heritage, the climate where you live, as well as your current age, activity levels, health and degree of stress, will predetermine how your body will react to certain kinds and ratios of foods. All of us have very unique nutritional needs. The Metabolic Typing Assessment we utilize helps to determine what kind of “diet” your body will respond to the best, considering all the above factors and your current state of health. Although not the “be all end all” method we use to help you achieve your desired goals, it is extremely helpful in designing a program that will make you feel your very best.

Could this be you?
Simple mistakes while trying to diet can often have far reaching negative consequences. Starving or not eating enough causes loss of muscle tissue. Your muscle is a much more metabolically active tissue than fat, which means if you have less of it you will burn fewer calories. Due to inadequate calorie intake your body goes into starvation, or in other words, survival mode. This, in turn, slows down your metabolism. Now you are burning fewer calories per day than before. Your initial weight loss slows down drastically or stops altogether. As if this wasn’t enough, you walk around tired, lethargic and grumpy. You’re always hungry and can’t stop thinking about food. You get frustrated and resume your normal eating patterns. Now your body perceives the old “normal” amount of calories as excess and you gain the weight right back. And that’s not even mentioning the hormonal imbalances that have been caused by this kind of dieting, which will only make weight loss even harder in the future.


The goal of a proper weight loss program should be to spare muscle but burn off body fat. Unfortunately, many weight loss programs result in both muscle and water loss but not really much fat. You end up being a thin fat person. Not healthy, and not pretty either.

As our client, you will not be a slave to calorie counting and constant measuring nor will you have to walk around hungry, grumpy, light-headed and depressed. Food is pleasure and we want you to enjoy it. Food is nourishment and we want you to learn to appreciate what it can do for your body. We want you to have a happy and healthy relationship with food and we are here to help you along the way.

Power of Positive Thinking

                          The Power of Positive Thinking: How Your Attitude Affects Weight Loss

Positive thinking plays a significant role in your weight loss efforts. Perpetual negative thoughts can lead to self-defeating behaviors such as going off your diet, overeating and skipping your exercise routine. Positive thoughts, on the other hand, can increase your motivation and energy level.

Positive Thinking and Weight Loss

Positive thoughts are empowering. A negative attitude can set processes in motion that makes losing weight difficult, if not impossible. Berating yourself every time you eat the wrong foods, constantly focusing on what you cannot eat and approaching your exercise regimen with dread are all ways that negative thought patterns can sabotage your weight loss efforts.
When you hold a negative image of yourself, you rob yourself of much-needed energy. When feeling powerless, depressed or unmotivated, it's easy to skip your daily workout or eat a bag of potato chips to feel better. However, tuning into how you feel, acknowledging those feelings and transforming those thoughts into something more positive can actually help you to achieve your weight loss goals faster.

Strategies for Increasing Positive Thinking

A common response to those who tell you to think more positively is often: "I feel what I feel. I can't help how I feel." Positive thinking is only effective if it is in alignment with your true feelings. If you sincerely feel down about your body weight, telling yourself that everything is okay will often create internal discord.
The trick is to tap into those feelings that ring true for you. For example, keep a daily journal in which you write down your negative thoughts and feelings. If you feel you are lacking in willpower or just can't overcome your cravings, write those thoughts down. When you acknowledge the darker emotions, they often tend to have less power over you.
It is important to then make a conscious effort to transform your thoughts. It may be true that you often cannot overcome your food cravings or stick to your diet. However, if there are times when you are able to stand strong, then focus on those moments and celebrate the triumphs. Maybe you put less sugar in your coffee today and said no to a second slice of pizza. Giving attention to the positive things will help to create greater self esteem and motivation to continue with your weight loss efforts.

 Positive Thinking and Setting Manageable Goals

One of the ways that a negative attitude can prevail during dieting is if you have set unreasonable goals for yourself. Trying to exist on an extremely low-calorie diet or setting your weekly weight loss goal at an unattainable number often sets you up for failure.
To increase weight loss success, set achievable goals. Losing one or two pounds per week is a reasonable goal and can generally be achieved without extreme measures. Weigh yourself weekly; every week that you reach your goal, acknowledge your success. This will perpetuate positive thinking. Before long, you'll find that your motivation and energy have increased, and the pounds are coming off.

Arthritis and Nutrition

Arthritis and nutrition
 
 

   Researchers have been exploring potential links between diet and arthritis for many decades, but apart from the effect of diets rich in purine on gout, there is still no agreement on the results of many of these nutritional studies.
There is little scientific evidence that taking expensive food supplements or eating elaborate diets is beneficial. Rather, the same results can be obtained by eating balanced meals that keep your weight down while providing all the vitamins and minerals you need.
For this reason you should try to eat a diet that:
•    contains plenty of cereal foods, vegetables and fruits;
•    is low in fat; and
•    includes only moderate amounts of sugar, salt and alcohol.

 The weight factor
 
Your weight is the single most important link between diet and arthritis, as being overweight puts an additional burden on your hips, knees, ankles and feet. If you are unable to exercise as much because of your arthritis, you should reduce your calorie intake. This will prevent excess energy from the food you eat being stored in your body as fat. However, you should continue to eat foods that have lots of vitamins and minerals such as fruit and vegetables and wholemeal, starchy foods, and cut down on fats and sugars.
Excess body weight is a problem for many people with arthritis, particularly those whose condition restricts them to a more sedentary lifestyle. People with rheumatoid arthritis who are taking corticosteroids may also have weight gain as a side effect of the steroid treatment.
Sometimes people with rheumatoid arthritis have a poor nutritional status as a result of weight loss. It can also be difficult for people with arthritis to increase their food intake if they experience pain when trying to prepare meals or go shopping, or if they are taking other medicines that cause gastritis or peptic ulcers. 

Vitamins and minerals

 



People with rheumatoid arthritis may experience the following vitamin and mineral deficiencies: folic acid, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, vitamin E, calcium, magnesium, zinc and selenium.
Taking vitamin supplements may help redress a deficiency, but increasing their intake has not been shown conclusively to slow the progression of arthritis, or alleviate its symptoms. However, folic acid, found in green leafy vegetables and wholegrain cereals, is important for people with rheumatoid arthritis who have been prescribed methotrexate, since it can help reduce some of the oral and gastrointestinal side effects of the medicine.
Making sure you get enough calcium (found in dairy products and vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts and cabbage) and vitamin D (from sunlight and fortified dairy products) is recommended to counter the effects of long-term therapy with steroid medicines such as prednisolone, which can contribute to osteoporosis.
It has also been suggested that increased intake of antioxidants such as selenium and vitamin E may decrease free-radical damage to the linings of the joints, although this has not been clinically proven.
Many people with arthritis are anaemic, but this is not always helped by iron. The anaemia may be due to blood loss associated with bleeding ulcers if you are taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Your doctor will advise you if you need more iron. 

Nutritional supplements

In recent years, researchers have become increasingly interested in the benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids which are found in fish oils. These essential fatty acids (EFAs) appear to have an effect on the inflammatory process.
Some studies have shown that taking Omega-3 fatty acid supplements can relieve joint pain and stiffness in people with rheumatoid arthritis, however, the doses used in these studies may be more than people would take when buying supplements themselves. Benefits from fish oils are modest, and may take months to appear.
As well as possibly helping rheumatoid arthritis, Omega-3 fatty acids help reduce blood clotting and protect against heart disease. It’s important not to confuse fish oils with fish liver oils (such as cod liver oil). Fish liver oils contain a lot of vitamin A, which can be dangerous in large amounts and should not be taken by pregnant women as it may harm the baby.
Glucosamine has also become popular as a treatment for osteoarthritis. There is some evidence that it may help control pain, and may even slow cartilage deterioration. However, a Cochrane analysis of clinical trials examining the usefulness of glucosamine suggests its effect on pain may be less than first thought. More trials are needed to assess its possible effect of slowing deterioration. Chondroitin is another commonly used treatment, but currently there is limited scientific evidence to support a significant benefit in treating osteoarthritis. 


Elimination diets
 

Elimination diets are a way of trying to identify the foods that may cause hypersensitivity in people. On an elimination diet, you would stop eating foods that may be causing your arthritis symptoms and then bring foods back into your diet one at a time. Elimination diets should be followed only under the guidance of a doctor to make sure you are still obtaining necessary nutrients. It is still very difficult to isolate foods because many foods are hidden ingredients in other foods. The usefulness of elimination diets in arthritis is probably questionable, as only a tiny percentage of people truly suffer from food allergies.
The evidence for foods causing arthritis or making it worse is very controversial and the list of the foods that have been implicated in causing flare-ups in arthritis is quite substantial, including milk and dairy products, food colouring, additives and preservatives, chocolate, red meats, salt, sugar, coffee and nightshade vegetables (such as potatoes, tomatoes and eggplant).
Some studies have looked at the relationship between inflammation of the gut and inflammation of the joints. Researchers have looked at lectins, food substances found in cereal grains such as wheat, rye, barley, oats and corn, or legumes such as peas and beans, which it has been suggested may promote the development of rheumatoid arthritis in genetically susceptible individuals. Lectins are said to cause the walls of the digestive tract to become leaky. Researchers propose that material normally kept inside the gut may leak into the body, prompting an immune reaction that leads to inflammation in the joints.
It can be quite difficult to determine accurately whether a particular type of food adversely affects your arthritis. The power of suggestion can be very strong, and some foods used in cooking may be eaten without you realising. Further complicating the issue is that arthritis is not constant — it flares up in an attack and then may calm down.
Each individual is different and there is no one food reported to cause symptoms in everyone. There are many books that recommend all sorts of exclusion diets and claim miraculous results, but these are controversial and may deprive your body of essential nutrients.
In the absence of concrete evidence, it is best to avoid unproven nutritional practices. If you have concerns about the adequacy of your diet, talk to your doctor.

Nutrition and Weight Maintenance

Nutrition and Weightloss 

GOAL

Promote health and reduce chronic disease risk through the consumption of healthful diets and achievement and maintenance of healthy body weights.
Overview
The Nutrition and Weight Status objectives for Healthy People 2020 reflect strong science supporting the health benefits of eating a healthful diet and maintaining a healthy body weight. The objectives also emphasize that efforts to change diet and weight should address individual behaviors, as well as the policies and environments that support these behaviors in settings such as schools, worksites, health care organizations, and communities.
The goal of promoting healthful diets and healthy weight encompasses increasing household food security and eliminating hunger.
Americans with a healthful diet:
•    Consume a variety of nutrient-dense foods within and across the food groups, especially whole grains, fruits, vegetables, low-fat or fat-free milk or milk products, and lean meats and other protein sources.
•    Limit the intake of saturated and trans fats, cholesterol, added sugars, sodium (salt), and alcohol.
•    Limit caloric intake to meet caloric needs.
•     All Americans should avoid unhealthy weight gain, and those whose weight is too high may also need to lose weight.
•    Why Are Nutrition and Weight Status Important?
Diet and body weight are related to health status. Good nutrition is important to the growth and development of children. A healthful diet also helps Americans reduce their risks for many health conditions, including:
•    Overweight and obesity
•    Malnutrition
•    Iron-deficiency anemia
•    Heart disease
•    High blood pressure
•    Dyslipidemia (poor lipid profiles)
•    Type 2 diabetes
•    Osteoporosis
•    Oral disease
•    Constipation
•    Diverticular disease
•    Some cancers
Individuals who are at a healthy weight are less likely to:
•    Develop chronic disease risk factors, such as high blood pressure and dyslipidemia.
•    Develop chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, osteoarthritis, and some cancers.
•    Experience complications during pregnancy.
•    Die at an earlier age.
Understanding Nutrition and Weight Status.

Diet

Diet reflects the variety of foods and beverages consumed over time and in settings such as worksites, schools, restaurants, and the home. Interventions to support a healthier diet can help ensure that:
•    Individuals have the knowledge and skills to make healthier choices.
•    Healthier options are available and affordable.

Social Determinants of Diet 

Demographic characteristics of those with a more healthful diet vary with the nutrient or food studied. However, most Americans need to improve some aspect of their diet.
 Social factors thought to influence diet include:
•    Knowledge and attitudes
•    Skills
•    Social support
•    Societal and cultural norms
•    Food and agricultural policies
•    Food assistance programs
•    Economic price systems

Physical Determinants of Diet

Access to and availability of healthier foods can help people follow healthful diets. For example, better access to retail venues that sell healthier options may have a positive impact on a person’s diet; these venues may be less available in low-income or rural neighborhoods.
 The places where people eat appear to influence their diet. For example, foods eaten away from home often have more calories and are of lower nutritional quality than foods prepared at home.
Marketing also influences people’s—particularly children’s—food choices.

 Weight

Because weight is influenced by energy (calories) consumed and expended, interventions to improve weight can support changes in diet or physical activity. They can help change individuals’ knowledge and skills, reduce exposure to foods low in nutritional value and high in calories, or increase opportunities for physical activity.  Interventions can help prevent unhealthy weight gain or facilitate weight loss among obese people. They can be delivered in multiple settings, including health care settings, worksites, or schools.

Social and Physical Determinants of Weight

The social and physical factors affecting diet and physical activity (see Physical Activity topic area) may also have an impact on weight.
Obesity is a problem throughout the population. However, among adults, the prevalence is highest for middle-aged people and for non-Hispanic black and Mexican American women. Among children and adolescents, the prevalence of obesity is highest among older and Mexican American children and non-Hispanic black girls. The association of income with obesity varies by age, gender, and race/ethnicity. 

Emerging Issues in Nutrition and Weight Status

As new and innovative policy and environmental interventions to support diet and physical activity are implemented, it will be important to identify which are most effective. A better understanding of how to prevent unhealthy weight gain is also needed.

Health Problems Due To Lack of Nutrition & Excess Weight

Health Problems Due To Excess Weight
 

Malnutrition can drain your energy.



Weakened Immune System
Inadequate nutrition can lead to a weakened immune system and poor wound healing, especially in older adults, according to MayoClinic.com. Getting proper amounts of vitamin A, B vitamins and zinc can help keep your immune system strong, according to Harvard Medical School. Although eating a well-balanced diet can help you meet your nutritional needs, ask your doctor if a multivitamin supplement is appropriate for you to help prevent deficiencies that can affect your immune system.





Anemia

 Anemia is a condition often caused by lack of iron, folate or vitamin B-12 in the diet. Anemia can lead to fatigue, dizziness, lightheadedness, irritability and feeling cold. People with an increased risk for developing anemia include individuals with blood disorders, women with heavy menstrual periods, pregnant women and people with nutrient deficiencies, according to MedlinePlus. Treatment for anemia usually involves taking a supplement containing the nutrient you are deficient in.



Heart Disease

A study published in a 2011 edition of "Nutrition Research" reports that vitamin D deficiency is common in U.S. adults, and may be associated with heart disease. The Office of Dietary Supplements recommends adult men and women under age 71 consume at least 15 micrograms, while adults over age 70 get at least 20 micrograms of vitamin D each day. Good sources of vitamin D include sunlight, fish, milk, yogurt and egg yolks.






Osteoporosis

 Osteoporosis, or weak, brittle bones, can result from lack of dietary calcium -- or reduced calcium absorption in your body. According to the Office of Dietary Supplements, groups of people with an increased risk for developing osteoporosis include postmenopausal women, women with eating disorders such as anorexia, people who avoid dairy products and vegetarians. Although dairy products are an excellent source of calcium, you don’t have to consume dairy foods to meet your daily calcium requirements. Calcium-fortified foods and beverages – like some breakfast cereals, brands of orange juice, tofu, soy milk, almond milk and soy yogurt – are excellent sources of dietary calcium. Many multivitamin supplements are also rich in calcium.

Leading Causes of Bad Eating Habits & Obesity

Leading Causes of Bad Nutrition



Fast foods are a leading cause of bad nutrition among teenagers.

The effects of bad nutrition can manifest as overweight, obesity, malnourishment -- which is a stable weight below normal -- and malnutrition, which refers to excess and undernourishment. Bad nutrition affects rich and poor countries alike. However, its severity is directly related to the causes of the problem, which include personal choice, poverty, increasing food prices and easy access to non-nutritious foods. Feeding America reports that as of 2010, unemployment in the United States surpasses poverty as an indicator of food insecurity. Other causes might prevail for specific groups, such as the elderly and young adults.

Poverty

 

Poverty and lack of resources are two causes of bad nutrition that contribute to the estimated 925 million people worldwide suffering the effects of malnutrition and its companion diseases, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. The criteria for defining malnutrition are inadequate intake of protein and micronutrients, or vitamins and minerals, which causes millions of children to die each year or to suffer lifelong physical and mental disabilities as the result of bad nutrition.

Limited Access

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, bad nutrition is among the many factors contributing to childhood obesity. In some locations, access to supermarkets and large grocery stores is limited by distance, economic status and lack of transportation. Residents of many of these communities, although unable to obtain affordable, nutritious food, nonetheless have access to fast foods with their lower nutritional composition. This affects the daily nutritional needs of adults as well as children.

Age-Related Nutrition Deficiency


 Aging is an additional cause of bad nutrition. Older adults who live alone or those with reduced mobility may have difficulty shopping for and preparing food. As a natural part of aging, changes that occur in taste and smell might cause a decrease in appetite, which leads to nutritional deficiencies. Economic hardship also contributes to the bad nutritional status of many senior citizens, because it limits their food choices. Physiological changes and illness contribute to a reduction in metabolic rate and diminished appetite, according to the March 2006 issue of “Clinical Interventions in Aging.”

Social and Environmental Issues



Teenagers are notorious for bad nutritional choices. Peer influence, easy access to fast food, addictive behaviors, and being raised by caregivers who lack knowledge of proper nutrition can cause children to grow up suffering the effects of poor eating habits. The cycle continues in college, where many students consume a nutritionally poor diet lacking sufficient amounts of fruits, vegetables and dairy products; skip meals; and overconsume fast foods, according to New York University. Working adults often miss meals and choose the quick pick-me-up provided by nutritionally deficient snacks and junk food. This type of eating behavior is not only bad nutritionally – it leads to nutrition-related health problems, including obesity.

Medications



Some over-the-counter and prescription medications affect the appetite and interfere with nutrient absorption and metabolism. People taking these medications over a long period may suffer from the same nutritional deficiencies as those who eat nutritionally poor diets. According to Janice Hermann, Ph.D. of Oklahoma State University, medications such as birth control pills can reduce nutrient metabolism, resulting in decreased levels of vitamin B6 and folate. Some anticonvulsants can cause the liver to remove additional amounts of vitamin D, which aids calcium absorption. Excess amounts of some nutritional supplements inhibit nutrient absorption. For example, excess zinc, copper or iron might interfere with one another’s absorption. Consult your physician or pharmacist about adverse nutritional side effects that might occur with prescribed or over-the-counter medications.

Health Risks due to Obesity

The Health Risks of Bad Nutrition
 

Extra calories add up quickly.

You eat a fast food meal on the way home from work and sneak a candy bar every evening when no one is watching. You're just too busy to make healthy meals, and chocolate tastes so good. Unfortunately, your bad nutrition decisions will catch up with you sooner or later. Individuals with poor nutrition are a risk for a host of health complications. Fortunately, it's not that hard to improve your diet -- eat at least two servings of fruit and five servings of vegetables everyday, eat a variety of foods from each of the food groups, limit your consumption of junk food to the occasional treat and replace soda with water. Consult your health care provider with any concerns about your diet.



The Basics 

Eating habits that result in poor nutrition include eating too many or too few calories per day, not eating from all the food groups, consuming too much fat, sugar and salt or eating foods which are non-nutritive. For instance, a person with poor nutrition might frequent fast food restaurants, drink soda instead of water and forget to eat fruits and vegetables. While an occasional hamburger won't hurt you, habitual poor nutrition can be quite damaging to your health.

Weight Control

The most obvious consequence of bad nutrition is the overweight and obesity epidemic seen in the United States and other first-world countries. If you overeat by even 100 calories per day -- equivalent to a tablespoon of peanut butter -- you're could gain up to 10 pounds per year. Little snacks here and there add up quickly, and the health consequences are significant. Being overweight or obese compounds your risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, cancer and osteoporosis according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.


Malnutrition 

 It's one of the ironies of modern culture that someone who eats too much can still be malnourished. The symptoms of malnutrition depend on which vitamins or minerals are lacking in your diet. Iron deficiency, for instance, can cause fatigue, dizziness, pallor and shortness of breath. The best treatment for malnutrition is to improve your diet and eat a wide variety of foods. In some circumstances, supplements may be necessary to overcome a nutritional deficiency.

Tooth Decay 

 A diet high in refined carbohydrates and sugary sweets increases your risk of developing tooth decay. Particularly damaging are sticky sweets like caramel or taffy that adhere to the teeth for longer than other foods. Dentists treat tooth decay with fillings and crowns or, in the worst case scenario, remove the rotted tooth with a root canal.

Lifestyle 

 If you put corn syrup in the tank of your car, how well will it run? Food is your body's fuel. What you eat effects your energy levels, quality of sleep and even your libido. Refined carbohydrates like white bread and pasta give you a quick energy boost, followed by a significant blood sugar crash. Replace refined carbs with whole grains such as oatmeal, brown rice and whole wheat bread to keep your blood sugar and energy levels stable. Eat a diet rich in vitamins and minerals to boost your libido naturally.

Improve Fading Memory and Thinking Skills With Nutrition

How to Improve Fading Memory and Thinking Skills With Nutrition
 

Clams are one of many foods that can boost your brain power.

Aging is part of life and there is no way around it. You may notice visible changes in your body, such as wrinkles or aches and pains, but the changes in your brain are not as obvious. A report from the USDA Agricultural Research Service states that with aging comes a natural loss of brain cells. However, you may be able to slow down that loss and improve your brain cells' communication abilities by getting an adequate intake of specific brain-boosting foods and nutrients.
1 . Eat fish, particularly fish high in omega-3 fatty acids such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, albacore tuna and herring. According to a study in the June 7, 2011, issue of "PLoS One," intake of omega-3 fatty acids improves brain performance, including learning and memory skills. Researchers report an added bonus of decreased anxiety levels.
Eating a portion of tuna, salmon, sardines or other oily fish once or twice a week reduces the risk of breast cancer, according to a review published by the British Medical Journal (BMJ) on Thursday.
Oily fish is rich in so-called n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, or n-3 PUFAs, which are involved in the immune system, blood-vessel activity and chemical messaging in the brain.


2. Snack on walnuts. Walnuts improve your brain's memory and learning capabilities, according to a study in the November 2011 issue of "Plant Foods For Human Nutrition." Walnuts are high in omega-3 fatty acids, but don't let their fat content scare you. Researchers in the study also report that the rats that had increased walnut intake showed a significant decrease in food intake, meaning walnuts may benefit your waistline while they improve your brain function.

 

3. Eat more blueberries and strawberries. A study in the October 2012 issue of "Psychopharmacology" reports that after only seven weeks of blueberry supplementation, rats showed improved learning ability and memory function. Not only can berries improve current brain function, but they may also delay the decline in brain function that comes with aging, according to a 
 study in the July 2012 issue of "Annals of Neurology."





4. Increase your total intake of fruits and vegetables. A report in the 2007 issue of "Sub-cellular Biochemistry" states that upping your fruit and vegetable intake may lower your risk of developing negative brain changes, such as memory loss, associated with aging.

5.Have a clam-bake. Clams are high in vitamin B-12, which lowers levels of homocysteine and methylmalonate, compounds in the brain that lead to poor memory and brain shrinkage, according to a study in the Nov. 8, 2011, issue of "Neurology." Other good sources of vitamin B-12 include liver, fish, lean meats and poultry, fortified cereals and dairy products.
