7 Lifestyle-Based Ways to Improve Your Memory

Description
  • Brain function was once understood to peak in
    adulthood and then declines slowly thus leading
    to memory losses.
  • Now, modern lifestyle has had a significant
    impact in contributing to the overall cognitive
    decline, which is why exposure to existing
    toxins, chemicals coupled with poor diet, lack of
    sleep as well as stress, and much more can affect
    the functioning of ones brain.
  • A healthy lifestyle can improve brain health and
    even encourage ones brain to grow new neurons, a
    process which is referred to as neurogenesis.
  • Ones brains hippocampus, which is the memory
    center will especially be able to grow newer
    cells and it is not known that ones hippocampus
    does regenerate throughout ones entire lifetime,
    even into ones 90s, provided of course proper
    tools are there.
  • Such tools are primarily lifestyle-based, which
    is wonderful news. You dont need an expensive
    prescription medication or any medical procedure
    at all to boost your brain, and your memory. You
    simply must try out the following tricks to
    improve your memory.

  • Eat Right
  • The foods one eats or does not eat do play a
    crucial role in ones memory functioning. Fresh
    vegetables are no doubt essential, and so are
    healthy fats, thus avoiding sugar and grain
    carbohydrates. For example, curry, celery,
    broccoli, cauliflower, and walnuts contain
    antioxidants as well as other compounds that do
    protect ones brain health and can even stimulate
    the production of ones new brain cells.
  • One must also increase ones animal-based omega-3
    fat intake and also reduce consumption of damaged
    omega-6 fats, in order to balance ones omega-3
    to omega-6 ratio. Also, krill oil to fish oil, as
    krill oil also does contain astaxanthin, which
    not only protects ones omega-3 fats from
    oxidation but does also appear to be particularly
    beneficial for ones brain health.
  • Coconut oil is also good. Two tablespoons of
    coconut oil (about 35 ml or 7 level teaspoons)
    can supply the equivalent of 20 grams of
    medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), which helps as
    a preventative measure against degenerative
    neurological diseases, or as a treatment for
    existing health issue.

  • Stop Multitasking
  • Multitasking is very popular these days as people
    want to do many things. Eventually, of course,
    multitasking may actually slow down one and also
    make one prone to errors as well as make one
    forgetful.
  • The opposite of multitasking would actually be
    mindfulness, which does help one to achieve the
    undistracted focus. Students who took a
    mindfulness class do improve reading
    comprehension test scores and also working memory
    capacity, and also experiences fewer distracting
    thoughts.
  • In case, one does find oneself tries to complete
    five tasks at once one does stop oneself and also
    does focus ones attention back on to the task at
    hand. If distracting thoughts do enter ones
    head, then one must remind oneself that these are
    only projections, not really reality, and allow
    them to pass off without even causing much stress
    upon one. One can then end the day with a 10- or
    15-minute meditation session in order to help
    stop ones mind from wandering as well as
    relaxing into a restful sleep.
