Your diet plays a crucial role in helping you maintain your brain health. The human brain - like every tissue in your body - is reliant on healthy nutrition throughout its life span. Focus on developing a healthy global diet, instead of too narrowly focusing on individual foods, nutrients, or spices. The social context in which you eat your food is also a core feature of driving your brain health. Maintaining social connection and keeping yourself cognitively engaged is central to healthy brain aging, and this is very closely tied to your habits around preparing and eating foods. So, in addition to eating healthy foods and healthy fats, do not underestimate the brain stimulating contributions around the healthy activities that go along with eating well.
