Avoid glucose spikes

Glucose spikes are the source of many potential issues, including increased aging, memory impairment, and mood swings.

Watch your glucose levels to avoid hitting these spikes, especially on your first meal of the day, if you want to keep your brain young.

Avoid fried foods

According to @emonthebrain, a study of 18,000 people confirms that diets high in fried, fatty foods hurt your memory and cognition.

Reduce or avoid the consumption of fried foods, or else your brain will be little different than the brains of the animals you eat.

Avoid bright lights at night

Bright lights at night mess with your sleep by targeting your melatonin levels.

If you want to go to sleep with a healthy mind, turn off the bedroom lights and keep yourself away from the window, where you might be struck by a car’s headlights or other people’s window lights.
