Experiments have proved that the beauty of eating chicken is that when lecithin in egg yolk is decomposed by enzymes, it can produce rich acetylcholine, which can reach brain tissue quickly after entering the blood and enhance memory. Especially egg yolk, which contains essential nutrients for brain cells such as egg yolk and egg calcium, can enhance brain vitality.
3. Fish: They can provide high-quality protein and calcium for the brain. The fatty acids contained in freshwater fish are mostly unsaturated fatty acids, which will not cause arteriosclerosis and have no harm to cerebral arteries. On the contrary, they can also protect the cerebral vessels and promote the activity of brain cells. Can provide high-quality protein and calcium for the brain. The fatty acids contained in freshwater fish are mostly unsaturated fatty acids, which can protect cerebral vessels and promote brain cell activity.
4. Shellfish: The content of carbohydrate and fat is very low, almost pure protein, which can quickly supply the brain with a large amount of methionine.

29. Onions: The effective ingredients in onions can dilute blood, improve blood supply to the brain, and eliminate psychological fatigue and excessive tension. Everyone can have a good effect by eating half an onion every day. 30. Garlic: The energy source of brain activity mainly depends on glucose. In order to make glucose play its due role, it is necessary to have enough vitamin B 1. Garlic itself does not contain a lot of vitamin B 1, but it can enhance the effect of vitamin B 1, because garlic can produce a substance called "alliin" with B 1, and the effect of alliin is much stronger than that of vitamin B 1. Therefore, proper consumption of garlic can promote the conversion of glucose into brain energy.
In short, although the above foods have brain-strengthening functions, we should pay attention to the principle of reasonable diet, that is, a balanced diet. It is good for your health to take in all kinds of nutrients necessary for your body every day.
Scientific research has found that many foods, such as walnuts, dates, sunflower seeds, day lilies, tremella, lotus seeds, black sesame seeds, longan, soybeans, peanuts, eggs, milk, animal livers, brains, fresh vegetables, fruits and so on. It has the effect of strengthening the brain and nourishing the brain. Scientists also believe that all foods containing protein, vitamins, amino acids and elements such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, zinc and chromium can prevent brain cells from aging and enhance memory.
Here are several kinds of foods with brain-strengthening and brain-nourishing effects.
Eggs: Eggs contain a lot of protein, fat and minerals, which are indispensable nutrients for brain metabolism. In addition, eggs also contain more choline acetate, which is of great help to complete the memory function of the brain.

Nutrients necessary for brain cells can give the brain the power to speak. Fish: It contains a lot of protein and calcium, especially saturated fatty acids, which can decompose cholesterol and make the cerebral vessels unobstructed. Soybean: Rich in protein. Eating a certain amount of soybeans or bean products every day can enhance memory. Carrot kernel: rich in carotene, it can prevent and eliminate brain fatigue. Auricularia auricula: contains protein, fat, minerals and vitamins. It is a good product for strengthening and nourishing the brain. Banana: It is rich in minerals, especially high in potassium ions, and it has a brain-strengthening effect if eaten frequently. Milk: contains protein, calcium, etc. , can provide various amino acids for the brain. Garlic: It contains allicin, which has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects, and also has certain effects of reducing blood fat and strengthening brain.
Two functions of cold pressed linseed oil;
1. Brain nourishing and intelligence improving-the most brain-nourishing food on land
The main components of human brain tissue are lipids, of which about 20% are ω-3 unsaturated fatty acids. About 40% of lipids in human retina are ω-3 unsaturated fatty acids. Severe lack of omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids will affect memory and thinking ability, and affect the intellectual development of infants, which may cause diseases such as brain atrophy, mental retardation, Alzheimer's disease, cranial nerve dysplasia, and even mild symptoms such as depression, brain fatigue, retinal aging, and decreased learning and working ability.
Flaxseed oil is rich in ω-3 unsaturated fatty acids, with the content as high as 57%, which is one of the plants with the highest ω-3 unsaturated fatty acids on land. Therefore, flaxseed oil is considered to be the most brain-nourishing natural food on land, which plays an important role in infant intelligence development, improving adolescent memory, strengthening the brain of middle-aged and elderly people, and preventing Alzheimer's disease.
2. Clearing blood and preventing diseases-preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids are essential fatty acids, which cannot be synthesized by human body and can only be absorbed from food. Medical research shows that ω-3 unsaturated fatty acids can reduce total cholesterol and triglyceride, and reduce the incidence of hyperlipidemia.
Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids can inhibit atherosclerosis, protect ischemic myocardium, reduce necrotic area and maintain the normal function of platelets.
Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids can also increase high-density lipoprotein, inhibit cell uptake and accumulation of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and eliminate cholesterol accumulated in cells.
Therefore, a certain amount of omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids can promote the normal metabolism of body functions, reduce triglycerides and total cholesterol, reduce thrombosis, prevent platelet aggregation, reduce blood viscosity, relax blood vessels, maintain vascular elasticity, prevent coronary artery spasm and thrombosis, and reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Edible method of cold pressed linseed oil
1. Cold pressed linseed oil can be used for cold vegetables, salads, soups or bright oil before cooking.
Cold pressed linseed oil can be well mixed with various salad dressings and keep its original flavor when making salads. Cold-pressed linseed oil can be mixed with sesame oil, pepper oil, pepper oil, garlic oil and mustard oil when making cold sauce, which can well maintain the original flavor of the above seasoning oil.
2. Cold pressed linseed oil is mixed with liquid cheese, yogurt or sweet condensed milk, and then ingredients such as raisins and dried fruit granules are added. The dessert has excellent flavor, which is beneficial to the digestion and absorption of calcium, natural vitamin E and vitamin A by human body.
3. Eat cold-pressed linseed oil directly-take 1 tablespoon (about 6- 8ml) every day, and it will have a good effect after long-term consumption. If the oil is mixed with purified water, or mixed with rich drinks such as honey, coconut milk and hawthorn fruit tea, the taste will be better.
4. Cold pressed linseed oil can be matched with proper amount of peanut butter, cocoa sauce and coconut sauce. And then spread it on a slice of bread to eat, and it tastes pleasant.
5. Cold pressed linseed oil can be pre-mixed with other edible oils in a certain proportion for low-temperature cooking, and the pre-mixed amount is recommended to be used up within one week to ten days.
Matters needing attention in preservation of cold-pressed linseed oil
1. After opening the bottle, put the cold pressed linseed oil in the refrigerator for low temperature preservation;
2. After opening the bottle, try to use up the oil in the shortest time, and pay attention to cover the bottle cap after each use;
3. Keep away from light.
