A Picture of a Brain Healthy Diet
|
- Fill half your plate with fruits and vegetables. The more variety in your choices the better. Each one offers a unique package of brain-helping nutrients.
- Make one-quarter of your plate a serving of whole grains. Try barley, rolled oats, quinoa, whole-wheat pasta or bread, millet, brown rice to name a few.
- Have the final quarter be a brain-beneficial fish such as halibut, trout or salmon (ideally eat a meal containing fish 3 times a week). Besides fish, other meals can be a serving of lean beef (cuts from the round or loin are great) or poultry (chicken or turkey).
- On the side… enjoy a serving of low-fat dairy (milk, yogurt or other calcium-rich food).
