Have you noticed your focus, energy, or memory change as the years have gone by?

As a culture, we often subscribe to the belief that the older we get, the worse our memory and cognitive function will be. And while some of these symptoms might have to do with age, we are learning that more and more these changes can actually be prevented and even reversed. Here at Parker Naturals, we've created a supplement to assist with that reversal called "Brain Boost". 

But if you are noticing yourself forgetting or misplacing things more often than before, or if you’re having trouble with mental clarity or focus -- here are a few other tips to help boost your brain health.

1. MEMORY AND BRAIN TRAINING GAMES

Remember the game “memory” you played as a child? Well, it turns out games that exercise your brain and memory are actually one of the best ways you can improve cognitive function and keep your mind young. Study after study has shown how Brain Training Games improve things like attention, memory, information processing, and slow cognitive decline.

There are lots of great websites and apps including Lumosity and FitBrains that have worked with top researchers and gaming experts to create activities that are both fun to play and also proven to help memory and cognitive function.

2. SUPPLEMENTS FOR BRAIN BALANCING

Our brains need all kinds of nutrients and components to be at their best. Luckily, there are many incredible supplements that are designed specifically to improve brain function and health, they are often known as Natural Nootropics.

Nootropics include many different ingredients including things like Ginko Biloba, which has been shown to improve memory in people facing symptoms of dementia and Alzheimer's Disease.

If you’re looking for a natural Nootropic to give you greater mental clarity and focus, like we said before, try Parker Natural’s Brain Boost which includes Ginko as well as other brain-enhancing ingredients like DMAE.           

3. NUTRITION AND DIET

Our gut health and our brain health are very closely related. For example, 95% of the serotonin used in your brain (regulating things like moods, sleep and appetite) is created in your GI tract. So what you eat has a major impact on your brain health and function. For simple shifts that will make a huge difference -- add in fermented foods that give your body lots of naturally occurring probiotics and make sure you are eating plenty of healthy fats like coconut oil.
