Protein-rich foods, such as eggs, can help stabilize blood sugar levels in the brain. They also contain choline which has been shown to play a role in brain function and memory.

Prebiotic fiber found in fruits and veggies such as artichokes, garlic, onions, leeks, and bananas can reduce the stress hormone.

Omega-3 fats are also important for the brain. Fish like tuna, salmon, and mackerel are all high in omega-3s which may alleviate the symptoms of brain disorders.

There's another reason to add avocado to everything! The magnesium in the versatile food can help relieve depression and anxiety.

Fermented foods like kombucha are also super healthy for the brain and can help boost your mood.

If you have a sweet tooth, dark chocolate, berries, and red grapes contain polyphenols which benefit the gut microbiome that helps boost mental health. Now you have an excuse to cheat on your diet with some delish dark chocolate!
