Fuel your brain with the nutrients it craves. These foods help improve focus, clarity, and memory — especially after 40.

Mental sharpness isn’t just about how much sleep you get — it’s also about what you eat.

Here are five brain-friendly foods to work into your weekly routine:

Blueberries – Rich in flavonoids that support memory and protect brain cells from oxidative stress.

Avocados – Full of healthy fats that improve blood flow to the brain.

Dark Chocolate – Small amounts (70%+) may boost dopamine and improve cognitive function.

Eggs – A top source of choline, essential for memory and learning.

Leafy Greens – Packed with folate and lutein, both linked to slower cognitive decline.

Combine these with hydration and daily movement for next-level focus.
