Statistics have shown that around 47 million people face the loss of cognitive prowess and deteriorated memory due to Alzheimer’s disease and the number is set to be tripled by 2050 if projections are to be believed. Certain factors like nutrition or the lack of it, exercise and lack of it, genetic issues, etc often influence, aggravate the problem, and through a systematic arrangement of dietary nutrition, to prevent memory loss to a vast extent. Here are the super-foods that boost your brain’s immunity and prevent memory loss:
More Fish and More Nuts
Fish, grains, and seeds are extremely rich in Omega-3 Fatty Acids that aid in healing, immunity, and better recovery of the body. These protect the body against free radical damage and also help in controlling excessive damage thus preserving brain cell’s natural ability.
Recommended: Salmon, Flax Seeds, Walnuts, Almonds, etc.
Antioxidants rich foods
Antioxidants are largely helpful in keeping the cognitive function of the body healthy as it limits the plaque within the brain and enables better functioning.
Recommended: berries such as blueberry, strawberries, oranges, apples, raspberries, and other fruits with dark skin.
Antioxidants work to boost body cells’ strength and shield the natural defense mechanism against depletion by supplying nourishment. Thus often anti-aging products also include antioxidant-rich ingredients and extracts. Oral consumption is suggested for best results but you can also try quality supplements to get your daily dose.
Antioxidant-rich Oils
Healthy Oils such as Extra Virgin olive oil, Coconut Oil, etc. supply Polyphenols to the body and work through their neuroprotective properties. Research on these oils’ therapeutic and cathartic effect on dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases are ongoing as scientific interest in the oils has grown high with recent positive studies. Including more coconut oil and Extra Virgin olive oil in your diet will surely yield healthy results. 
Coffee, Chocolate, and Spices
While many brag about their extremely high coffee consumption and cultivated coffee flavor tastes, some worry about their caffeine addiction. But when taken in moderation, coffee proves to be largely helpful as it aids in boosting alertness and triggers better focus ability.
A recent study even showed that Caffeine helps in controlling Alzheimer’s pathology by preventing Acetylcholinesterase (neurotransmitter).
Cinnamon, Turmeric, Nutmeg, Basil, Thyme, Rosemary, etc help in boosting the natural ability to retain information by developing the cognitive prowess and boosting the brain’s neurotransmitters’ balance. Certain spices listed above are anti-inflammatory and antioxidant in nature so they help through their glucoregulatory action and control the damage that old age and loss of brain cells communication and nutrition may initiate.
Leafy Greens
Vegetables are essential for anyone looking to hone their cognitive ability and information retention ability through better memory. Leafy vegetables, especially green leafy ones are rich in numerous vitamins, minerals that inhibit the damage that aging produces and supply the body with suitable nutritional quantities to fulfill its requirements. Cruciferous vegetables are strongly recommended for anyone with memory issues.
If you have a genetic history of dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or similar conditions then beginning dietary changes and sufficient nutritional intake at a young age would be beneficial in the cultivation of immunity.
