The Ultimate Brain Food- Omega-3 and Turmeric

by Cathy Fleming 08 Jul 2021 0 Comments
You’ve heard the phrase "you are what you eat."  What you may not know is that the organ most affected by what you eat is the brain. The brain needs omega-3 to survive and requires it more than any other organ in the body - and most people simply don't get enough of it in our diets.
Omega-3 is not the only brain food you need.  Combined with turmeric, the two are allies for brain health.

How The Brain Uses Omega-3

Omega-3 is to the brain like calcium is to bones - Omega-3 in your diet keeps your brain strong.

Omega-3 helps prevent brain cells from getting stiff - basically Omega-e helps encourage brain plasticity.  The membrane around brain cells works like a bag around the cells.  The more flexible it is, the healthier the brain cells.  Omega-3 helps keep the membranes stretchy and healthy.  The cell membranes watch over the nutrients that the cells need to thrive.  A healthy membrane knows when to let the nutritious stuff in and keep the toxins out.

Omega-3 can actually also helps you think faster!  A substance called myelin surrounds the nerve cells and speeds the transmission of nerve impulses throughout the brain.  Omega-3 helps produce myelin so, your brain works more efficiently.

An omega-3 rich diet also helps reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s disease.  Studies have indicated that people with dementia have lower DHA blood levels.

Turmeric and Brain Function

The neurons in the brain can form new connections and, in some areas of the brain, they can increase.  One of the driving processes for this is the brain-derived neurotrophic factor or (BDNF).  BDNF is the gene that helps create a protein that promotes the life of neurons.  BDNF plays a role in memory and learning.  But, you can also find it in the areas of the brain that are responsible for eating, drinking, and body weight.

Turmeric increases the brain levels of BDNF.  As a result, it can help prevent or reverse decreases in brain function due to age. 

Together, turmeric and omega-3 provide overall body-support and help with mental health by improving mood and symptoms of depression by boosting serotonin.  

Omega-3 and turmeric are the ultimate duos for antioxidant support and support of a healthy aging process, since keeping your brain healthy as you age is a vital step in staying healthy.  T
Taking an omega-3 supplement with turmeric can keep your brain in tip-top shape and help you feel young again!
