Some brain-boosting techniques

You will get the results only if do it consistently over a longer period of time.

Invest some time for exercise

Exercise can improve your brain health and cognitive ability, as well as boost your memory. Following a regular exercise routine can, in the long run, help protect your brain against degeneration. Hopefully this reason is enough for you to invest some time to walk, run, do some stretches or hit the gym daily.

Get rid of negative thoughts, and think positive

Too much stress and anxiety can kill existing brain neurons and prevent creation of new neurons. Positive thinking, say researchers, can speed up the creation of cells and help reduce stress and anxiety.

Go out and get some sunlight

Too much exposure to sunlight can damage your skin, but too little is also bad for your brain. Vitamin D in your system supports brain function and protect against neurodegeneration (aging of your brain). You brain functions may suffer in absence of adequate amount of this vitamin. Taking Vitamin D supplements in moderation may also help, if you want to avoid sunlight.

Feed your brain with healthy food

What you eat can impact your brain function. Over 20% of all nutrients & oxygen that we consumed goes to the brain. There are a number of healthy foods that can improve your brain power. Foods rich in antioxidants, amino acids, and vitamin E are particularly important. Wine (in moderation), nuts, blueberries, whole grains, and avocados are some foods you can eat to boost your brain power.
