Best Food And Nutrition For A Healthy Brain!!

      

Brainy food

Eating well means thinking well. Nutrition and some food have been shown to improve general brain health and others can help prevent or at least slow down the effects of certain brain diseases. That’s why it’s important to include these foods in your diet as often as possible.

1. Tomatoes contain lycopene, which helps fight the cell damage that can be found in Alzeheimer’s disease.

      2.  Fish has plenty of omega 3, which help maintain a healthy nervous system, and iodine, to improves mental clarity.

      3. Whole-grain foods contain folic acid, B12, B6, which all improve in memory.

      4.     Blueberries have been shown to improve short term memory.

      5.    Blackcurrants contain vitamin C, for increased mental agility.

      6.   Pumpkin seeds contain zinc, which enhances memory and thinking skills.

      7.  Fortified cereals are a good source of B12, which reduces homocysteine levels that  may contribute to     Alzheimer’s disease.

      8.   Brocoli provides Vitamin K, which enhances cognitive function.

      9.   Sage is good for improving memory.

    10.   Nuts are great source of vitamin E, which improves memory.

Is Shirsa Proven To Work? Have Studies Been Published?

Shirsa Proven to Work

Yes. Dozens of journal articles supports the impact of  brain training exercises on normal aging adults. 

These indicate that the Shirsa not only improves key standard measures of cognitive function (including speed and accuracy of processing, attention, and memory), they also improve key standard measures of quality of life (including health-related quality of life, feelings of control, depressive symptoms, and functional independence).

You Have The Power To Improve Your Brain!!!!!!!!

Improve your brain

Scientists once believed that mental ability was fixed after childhood. But over the last few decades, neuroscientists have discovered that adults’ brains are constantly changing – growing new neurons and connections – in a process known as neuroplasticity. Shirsa takes advantage of the brain’s innate neuroplasticity to help shape it into a more effective, powerful organ.







Instead of teaching specific skills that may only be useful in specific areas, Shirsa targets core cognitive processes that underlie performance in many different areas. These processes include memory, attention and other abilities that are critical in the real world.

Experimentally tested & clinically proven

The results of training with Shirsa are measured experimentally in randomized controlled trials. A typical experiment begins by measuring each person’s baseline abilities with tests of brain performance. After several weeks of training, each person is tested again to determine how much the Shirsa training has improved cognitive function.

Human Cognition Project – Uncovering the secrets of the brain

 The Human Cognition Project combines the database of human cognition – Pivot run Shirsa members who have collectively trained  – with a network of scientists and top neuroscience programs in the world – all to better understand human cognition so that we do more to improve brain performance.

Personalized for you

Each brain is unique, and everyone has different goals. We at Shirsa understands this and uses a patent-pending technology to combine the powerful database of the Human Cognition Project with sophisticated adaptive training algorithms to create a training program that’s right for each individual.

Personalized training programs are designed to help you achieve your goals. Additionally, each exercise adapts to your skill level, driving the maximum amount of benefit for each day of training. The more you tell us about your priorities, the more we can customize the training for you.

Drive safe!!

'Talking on phone'..'texting while driving'... is dangerous and irresponsible behavior and it should be banned.  However, there are a significant number of accidents that occur where there is no device being used behind the wheel. 

Research about how the brain works and its impact in situations such as driving make it clear that brain performance is the biggest factor in driving safely. Whether it be responding to visual cues such as tracking multiple objects, widening peripheral view or maintaining a clear sight of what is straight ahead, it is the brain’s job to process and respond to the thousands of stimuli and information taken in every second. And according to our research on brain plasticity, the brain has the ability to rewire and therefore improve the cognitive functions that are essential for safe driving.

So many lives can be saved on the roads today if people would only pay attention to their real reason for being behind the wheel  to operate a motor vehicle while we help drivers deal with the multitude of distractions that get in their way of doing it safely.
