Increase IQ: Food for thought!

Source: Websites

Consume ginkgo biloba
- whether in capsules or tea, ginkgo leaves have been shown to increase blood flow to the rain, helping memory and concentration.

Drink coffee
- everything from test scores on college exams to chess games have been shown to improve after a cup of coffee or other drink containing caffeine. It is temporary effect however and caffeine may have adverse long-term effects for regular users.

Avoid sugar
- insulin that is dumped into your veins can give you sluggish feeling that makes it difficult to think.

Avoid junk foods
- especially high processed goodies such as cakes, pastries and biscuits which contain transfatty acids. These not only pile on the pounds but are implicated in a slew of serious mental disorders, from dyslexia to autism.

Eat fish
- eating fish speeds up brain waves and improves concentration.

Eat more tomatoes
- lyponene, a powerful antioxidant found in tomatoes could hlp protect against the kind of free radical damage to cells which occurs in the development of dementia, particularly Alzheimers.

Bing on blueberries
- blueberry extract can improve short term memory loss

Go nuts
-a good intake of vitamin E might help to prevent poo memory.

Pick up pumpkin seeds
- a handful a day is all you need to get your recommended daily amount of zinc, vital for enhancing memory and thinking skills.
