The reason for fruit's brain-boosting effect? It's all about the flavonoids, those amazing antioxidants that fight disease and might be one of your best defenses against cognitive decline. In a study, people who had the highest flavonoid intake performed best throughout a 10-year period on tests of verbal fluency, logical reasoning, and visual memory.

So my apple a day is going to help keep me mentally sharp, eh? That's good news!
I have just started a blog myself in an attempt to begin (publicly) a healthier lifestyle.
I really like your blog and definitely will enjoy reading your progress posts.
I also really like your attitude. It's strong and yet has a soft side.
just did a magazine article on brain fitness and was surprised at (OOPS) all the brain foods (hello blueberries!) I didnt get regularly.
is it time for me to do my real age? probably :)
