5 best delicious brain foods to eat during exam week

Avocados:

Avocados are some of the best brain food. They contain multiple important vitamins that help the brain. Vitamin K and folate, which are in the avocado, helps with memorizing and focusing. Exam week is hard and we can lose focus easily, so this might just be the answer. Vitamin B and C, also in the fruit, help with energy and need to be replenished daily. You can add the fruit to most things such as a bagel, smoothie, grilled cheese, toast, and ahttps://draxe.com/15-brain-foods-to-boost-focus-and-memory/ salad.

Dark chocolate:

We all need and love chocolate, especially during exam week when we are working into the late hours of the night. Dark chocolate has the ability to be good for you as it has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory parts to it. The lack of sleep exam week create can cause sickness and dark chocolate can help combat that. How can you argue when someone says eating chocolate is good for you?https://draxe.com/15-brain-foods-to-boost-focus-and-memory/

Egg yolks:

People have been told for years now that egg yolks are not good, but in truth they are. The yolk causes a breakdown of bethane in the brain creating hormones that directly correlate to happiness. So when your stressed and just feel like it’s you versus the exam, eat eggs and it will make you happier. This will allow you to study in a more productive way.

Broccoli:

Growing up we were always told to eat our broccoli and that it is healthy for us. As much as we hate to say your right to your parents, they were correct. Broccoli contains high levels of vitamin K and choline, both which help with memory. It also makes you feel full quicker because one cup is 150 percent of the daily intake you need of vitamin C. I know most people don’t eat it plain but you can easily mix it in with food and it will only make the meal more delicious. You can even add it to soup and make creamy broccoli soup to eat on a cold winter https://draxe.com/15-brain-foods-to-boost-focus-and-memory/day.

Exercise:

It may not be a food you eat, but it food for the brain. Working out, even just for a short period of time, releases endorphins. These make you feel better mentally and physically. There are many options for working out. If you like high intensity, go for a run. If your into a more slow relaxed pace, take a yoga class. Each person has their own way of exercise and yours may be as easy as just going for a walk while on a study break. It’s important to get a break, get some fresh air, and to stay active during such a stressful time. Working out helps improve cognative functions as well letting us process things.http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/10-foods-boost-your-brainpowerbetter.
