“Brain Food” Breakthrough BOOSTS Memory
One area that mainstream medicine consistently overlooks about brain health is the fitness and function of your mitochondria.
Mitochondria produce ATP, which is what your brain cells use for energy. Without enough ATP, your brain cells can die.
When your mitochondria stop functioning correctly—and your body doesn’t get rid of them properly—they build up, negatively impacting brain function.
However, removing damaged mitochondria can improve memory and reduce Alzheimer’s symptoms.
And there’s a simple way to do it.
Mitophagy, the technical name for how dysfunctional mitochondria are taken out and components recycled, is commonly seen in neurodegenerative diseases.
It occurs when damaged mitochondria build up and gunk up your brain.
But taking steps to help your body clear out that junk can turn things around, boosting brain health.
One of the more well-known ways to remove these weak mitochondria is with a supplement called NAD (nicotinamide riboside).
Now, researchers have identified another potent compound that works just as effectively as NAD.
This next-generation compound, urolithin A, removes damaged or weak mitochondria, and reduces excessive inflammatory responses.
But most exciting of all, research confirms that urolithin A can help prevent harmful plaque from building up in your brain. And animal studies reveal that this leads to increased learning and better memory.
You can get urolithin A from a supplement, but I’d rather get it from natural sources.
Those include…
- pomegranates,
- raspberries,
- strawberries,
- almonds,
- walnuts,
- and pecans.
When you eat foods like these (as opposed to swallowing a supplement), you’ll be getting the brain-boosting benefits of urolithin A plus all of the other beneficial nutrients these foods have to offer.
P.S. Try THIS tasty diet trick to grow a bigger, BETTER brain.
