Nurture your brain and body. Nutrition and lifestyle powerfully effect brain function, mood, memory and learning. According to Andrew McCulloh, Director of the Mental Health Foundation, UK, we are just beginning to understand the profound link between nutrition and mental health. Eating whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts and beans has a long-term mood and brain boosting effect that no snack cake can rival. Drinking water instead of caffeinated and sugary beverages improves alertness naturally. Adequate rest is essential for resisting fatigue and irritability. And daily exercise especially in the sunshine and fresh air, has a calming, stress-lowering effect often more powerful than antidepressants.
