5 simple daily habits to keep your brain sharp after 40

Certain nutrients like omega-3s, antioxidants, and vitamins play an important role in brain health, and so they should be included in one’s daily diet to boost memory and brain functioning. A 2021 study titled ‘Associations of Omega-3 fatty acids with brain morphology and volume in cognitively healthy older adults’ in Ageing Research Reviews showed the link between higher omega-3 levels and greater brain volume, particularly in the hippocampus and grey matter, which are important for memory and overall brain health.
So include foods like fatty fish, walnuts, blueberries, and leafy greens to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, which cause cognitive decline.
