UP YOUR OMEGA - 3




Your brain needs omega-3 fatty acid to function, but your body can not produce them, That means you have to get them from your diet. Two 2017 brain studies from the University of lllinois at Urbana-Champaign suggest that eating omega-3 fatty acids may improve memory retention and strengthen the structures responsible for fluid intelligence ( the ability to solve the problem) The new research support the idea that upping your intake of these fatty acids can slow age-related cognitive decline.
In addition, researchers at Harvard University found that omega-3 fatty acids may interfere with the brain signals that trigger the characteristic mode swings seen with bipolar disorder. if these findings hold true in future studies, omega-3 fatty acids may have implications for treating other psychiatric disorders, such as depression and schizophrenia.
Some studies have found that omega-3s can significantly decrease triglyceride levels, low blood pressure, and reduce blood levels of homocysteine, high levels of which are associated with an increased risk of stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and other brain problems.

Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids include


  1. Flaxseed( linseed) soybean, and canola oils 
  2. Cold-water fatty fish, like salmon, tuna and sardines 
  3. Certain fortified dairy and soy products ( look for fortified dairy products by brand)
  4. Nuts, specially walnuts 
  5. Legumes, such as pinto beans and peas  
Your body needs more than one type of omega-3 fatty acids, so eat a variety of these foods every chance you get, you can also supplement with 10 gram of fish oil a day.

MAKE A TO-DO LIST

W riting a to-do list may not seems like much of a brain booster, but it is figuring out your priorities and filtering out the nonessentials are higher level cognitive tasks, and practicing theses skills keeps your brain in top notch shape . Also translating a big-picture problem or goal (" Get ready to file taxes") into its smaller tasks ("find my W-2 and Get recommendations for which tax software to use") is another executive function making a to-do list creates mental space for doing other tasks, not just remembering the various thinks you have to do. plus using a to-do list can make your feel good . one study showed that you get a little dopamine rush every time you cross a task off your to-do list ( dopamine makes you feel good, elevating your mode ). You should list even small tasks just for the reward of marking through them. one researcher explained that the frequency of process is more important to your brain than how high the progress is, Practically sp...

What Do You Mean By Rational Animal ?

I think before we start talking who deserved to be rational ? First we need to find out the proper definition of rationality, as I was searching about meaning of the Rationality I found that it has different specialized meanings in Philosophy, Economics, Sociology, Psychology and so on. Since I interest in philosophy I thought it would be better to share some philosopher theory and my opinion.   According to Aristotle, humans are the rational animal. The borderline between rational and irrationality is fundamental to many aspects of human life including the law, mental health, and language interpretation. And my opinion is that we are a thinking center and thinking itself is a parts of reasoning.

And yes we are a ...
