  • Brain Boosting Foods : The #1 Worst Food that Harms Your Brain!

  • First, the BAD NEWS...

  • Certain foods you eat can indeed harm your brain, both in impaired learning ability as well as impaired memory.

  • Even worse, the wrong food and drink choices throughout your life can even lead to the terrible and deadly disease of Alzheimers.

  • Food #1 that HARMS your brain: Fructose

  • Beyond the harm to your brain, it's well known that a high fructose diet can also cause insulin resistance in your body over time.

  • One thing to note about fructose...

  • Fruits do contain fructose, but contain MUCH smaller quantities of fructose than you would consume in a sweetened drinks or junk foods.

  • Also, the phytonutrients, antioxidants, and fiber that's contained in most whole fruits counteracts any negative effects of fructose.

  • I personally try to keep fruit intake to no more than 1-2 pieces a day due to the sugar and fructose content of larger amounts of fruit.

  • Other Foods that HARM Your Brain:

  • You probably already know some of the harmful health effects of these foods, but long term effects on your brain are yet another...

  • Trans fats -- strongly inflammatory in your entire body including damage to cell membranes throughout your body.

  • Avoid hydrogenated oils in processed foods and deep fried foods.

  • Mercury

  • Mercury from pollution and from fish that are high on the food chain can possibly cause long term negative effects on your brain.

  • Limit these types of fish to a couple times a month and focus more on fish such as salmon, trout to reduce your mercury load.

  • Wheat-based foods

  • Wheat contains compounds termed "exorphins" that have an effect in your brain similar to opiate drugs.

  • This explains why people have such a hard time giving up their beloved pasta and muffins because these foods are mildly addictive.

  • The good news is...

  • There are plenty of superfoods, herbs, and spices that can protect your brain and your other organs too!
