Do you have memory problems? Would you like to have a sharper memory?

To start, go over this check list:

1. Get regular exercise that gets your heart rate up such as a brisk walk, jogging, cycling, swimming, work-out, etc. This is extremely important.
2. Get enough quality sleep. Go to bed and wake up at about the same time each day. Avoid eating in the evenings. Also avoid getting stimulation in the evenings such as being on the computer or watching T.V.
3. Eat little to no sugar! Sweets dull your memory and increase your appetite leading to lethargy (tiredness), irritability, difficulty concentrating and sleeping and likely damages your brain long-term.
4. Eat balanced meals. See suggestions at this tab.
5. Consume at least as many omega-3's as omega-6's (principally found in fish and some seeds such as flax).
6. Avoid bad fats (virtually everything apart from authentic olive oil, coconut oil, fish, nuts and avocados.

How many of these are you completing on a weekly basis? If not all of them then you are asking for short-term and long-term brain problems.

Here is an informative article on how to avoid dementia that reveals what research is finding. Hints: get regular exercise, learn new things (be challenged!), enjoy a positive social life,  relationships and hobbies, get a stimulating job and activities, and find ways of improving your emotional/relational well-being.

Did you know that what you eat greatly affects how your brain functions?

Refined sugar is a depressant that also requires the body to give up essential minerals in order to digest it. But this isn't the only food item that negatively impacts how we feel and function.

Junk foods (filled with empty calories, bad fats, altered salt and sugars) are one culprit that can sap your enthusiasm for life.

A lack of important vitamins, minerals, omega-3's, nutrients, iodine, and amino acids contribute to mental and physical illnesses.

Some plants improve our ability to remember, specifically peppermint (30%+) and rosemary 70%+!). If pure, the essential oils of these and other plants can be easily and quickly smelled and/or applied to one's body -specifically near the tops of our thumbs and big toes and added to capsules or foods/drinks (best if not too hot of a temperature so as to preseve the properties).

Young Living also produces a blend of oils called "Brain Power." See testimonials about this and other oils at this link. Go to the search button and type in "brain".

Cognitive decline can also be the result of a loss of what are called "Redox Signalling Molecules." These are vital for all living things, including every cell in our body. They decline with age, stress, illness, drugs (of any kind), radiation and more. Many who have begun to use Asea, a product that boosts these molecules, have noticed improvements in every area of their lives, including brain function. Ask us more about this life-enhancing product.
