So it is said - I wonder then where my brains came from - never had fish (allergies) but I do get my oils in with olives and nuts

So says @MALUSE but i think M has a good brain otherwise she would never be able to be such a wonderful musician as well - learning is different but she does apply herself

Yes walnuts, look at a half walnuts, what does it look alike? A small brain! Many times food that look alike an internal organ is good for that specific organ.

Well, my Mom has always believed in fish and yes, most green veggies. My Gran still believed in a teaspoon of cod liver oil every morning, but, I think most would run from that, I know I did!

there is no ways M will have cod liver oil - he he - But Scotch Emulsion has it in - maybe i should give her some. now you have me thinking - but then a tin of tuna could work too or Sushi with her favorite Salmon

@Inlemay , I am there with M, I would run a mile from cod liver oil! Definitely tuna is kinder and maybe a tuna salad could still help give a boost. :-)

I think that sushi is a good idea. I am trying to add "brain food" in my daily eating habits as well. I think that honey helps a lot and I remember I used to eat a bar of chocolate right before exam time and it was helpful too.

Pumpkin seeds are a good source for protein, magnesium and zinc which are important for concentration and thinking ability and are very good for the memory. Banana is also good for relaxation because it has substances that increase serotonin levels. Some science studies found out that curry do magic for the brain. Also some sugar is important too especially in the morning, but too much sugar is doing the opposite thing of course.
