3. Difficulty Concentrating/Remembering
Your diet can affect more than just your physical health — it can greatly impact your mental and emotional health, too. Foods high in sugar or foods that are heavily-processed can affect your memory and ability to concentrate. Some foods, like sugary sodas, have even been linked to Alzheimer’s.
But there are good foods you can eat for your brain’s health, too. Filling your diet with foods like berries, oily fish, seeds, nuts, whole grains, and leafy greens like spinach will help to boost your brainpower and clear away the mental fog, allowing you to stay focused and sharp for years to come. As a bonus, many of these foods (like spinach) have additional vitamins and health benefits, and are considered superfoods for your whole body!
