Food for
thought
The brain is a really
complicated organ – it doesn’t just need energy, it needs lots of
different chemicals, fats and minerals to keep everything working.
A lot of these things only come from food, so if you’re not eating
the right things, it can have a bad effect on your brain. Making
sure you’re eating the right kinds of amino acids, fatty acids and
micronutrients can improve your memory, mood and mental
performance.
The brain works by sending
electrical and chemical signals through specials cells called
neurons. In order to make these chemicals, the body needs amino
acids. These are found in foods which have lots of protein in them,
such as meat, fish, eggs and dairy products. If you’re a vegetarian
or a vegan you can get amino acids from beans, soya and
seeds.
The most common substance in
or brain is fat. But not just any kind of fat! The cells of the
brain are made up of specials fats called fatty acids. If we don’t
replace these fatty acids, then the brain cells start to break
down. This means that the brain won’t work so well, especially as
we got older. There are two essential fatty acids for the body:
omega-3 and omega-6. Omega-3 mainly comes from oily fish like
mackerel and sardines, while omega-6 comes from liver and dark
green vegetables.
Finally, we need to have
various micronutrients like zinc, iron, copper and sodium. These
protect the brain from diseases and can be found in fruit,
vegetables and nuts. Overall, the most important thing is to eat a
wide variety of different foods. A diet rich in fruit, vegetables,
seeds, nuts and oily fish, and low in red meat and sugar, is the
best way to maintain a healthy body, mind and
brain.
Do True or
False
1. The brain is a complex
organ that requires activity. True
2. Malnutrition is the cause
of decreased brain activity.
True
3. The brain works on signals
received from food protein. True
4. Speeds up brain function
when brain cells decay. False
5. There is only one trace
element in the human brain. False
Task for functional
literacy

is good for the brain?
