Do you find yourself losing your keys, misplacing your cell phone or walking into a room to get something and wondering what it was? You are not alone! Here are some steps which can help sharpen your focus:
- EAT BERRIES: Enjoying one cup of red, blue or purple colored berries every day can make you feel as clear headed as you did ten years ago. According to Columbia University researchers, berries are rich in flavonoids which boost the flow of nutrient riched blood to your brain cells.
- SUNSHINE: You can cut your risk of brain lapses by 50% just by stepping outside for some sunshine every day! Sun exposure stimulates your body to produce Vitamin D, which helps your brain cells stay young and your memory stay sharper.
- SALACIA SUPPLEMENTS: Supplementing with 500 mg of this herb could improve your focus and concentration within only 10 days. Salacia helps your brain absorb up to 27% more energizing glucose from every meal.
- WEAR EARPLUGS: Wearing earplugs when you are trying to concentrate in a noisy environment can double your ability to zero in on the task at hand.
QUICK TIP
Take a deep whiff of a freshly cut lemon. Its tart aroma stimulates the release of energizing beta brain waves, revving focus, concentration and memory often within 30 seconds according to researchers at Standford University.
