How to Eat for a Better Mind

What we eat impacts not only our body but also our mind, as it directly affects the structure and function of our brain.

Eating a healthy, balanced diet can improve brain function, mood, and attention, while lowering the risk of anxiety and depression. So-called "brain foods"—such as berries, dark chocolate, green tea, nuts, and salmon—are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, and other nutrients that our brain needs to function at its best.

Just as important as eating well is avoiding harmful foods. A diet high in sugar, fats, processed foods, and alcohol is linked to diminished brain function and worsened symptoms of mood disorders.

What Is a Healthy Diet?

A good diet is important for our health and can help us feel our best. No single food contains all the essential nutrients the body needs to stay healthy and work properly. Our diets should contain a variety of different foods to help us get the wide range of nutrients that our bodies require.

Energy Balance for a Healthy Diet

A healthy diet should provide us with the right amount of energy balance, where the calories consumed from the diet equal the calories used by the body. We need these calories for all the functions of the body. Consuming extra calories will cause weight gain.
