“Exercise has many positive effects on the brain including the production of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant factors, and the production of growth factors and neurotrophic factors that produce new neurons and allow existing neurons to survive.”
“Carotenoids are red, yellow, and orange pigments found in fruits and vegetables that exert antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. Lycopene (which is found in tomatoes and watermelon) and lutein (which is found in green leafy vegetables) are among the most abundant carotenoids in the human diet.”
“First, they assessed the animals' neuroprotective and antioxidant marker levels and subjected them to various memory and behavioral tests. They found that exercise reduced memory problems and cognitive losses by increasing the expression of irisin.”
“Nutrition experts have long known that olive oil, which is rich in antioxidants and bioactive compounds, provides protection against cardiovascular disease. But a recent review suggests that the beneficial effects of olive oil extend to maternal and fetal health, too.”
“Robust evidence from epidemiological, clinical, rodent, and in vitro studies indicates that sulforaphane exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral properties. Findings from a recent study suggest that sulforaphane is beneficial for the prevention and treatment of coronavirus infections.”

“And it activates genetic pathways in our body, the same ones that sulforaphane activates, that have been shown to increase antioxidants in the brain, like glutathione, that have been shown to lower DNA damage in our cells, all sorts of benefits.”
“Mankai, also called duckweed, is rich in polyphenols, omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fiber, and many micronutrients, including iron and vitamin B12. The polyphenols in mankai exert robust antioxidant activity and support healthy blood glucose levels—critical elements in maintaining brain health.”
“A recent study demonstrates that consumption of a wild blueberry extract improves metabolic function and cognitive performance in middle-aged adults. Blueberries are rich sources of anthocyanins, a type of flavonoid compound that exerts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.”
“Luteolin has also been shown to slow cognitive decline in old mice. Mice that were given luteolin in their diet had brains that functioned much like their younger counterparts.”
