Eating well is crucial for your Smarty Pants’ overall well-being but even more important to keep their brains stimulated, healthy and happy. Luckily www.bbcgoodfood.com recommends the top five must-have brain foods for your busy bee.<\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. Whole grains<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Picture the brain like a car, it cannot drive if there\u2019s no petrol in it. Therefore, the body\u2019s form of petrol can be seen as glucose and a steady supply of it can be found in wholegrains. By choosing whole grain cereals, bread, rice and pasta, glucose can release energy in your bloodstream, keeping you mentally sharp throughout the day.<\/p>\n

    2.Oily Fish<\/p>\n

    According to bbcgoodfood.com, fish promotes healthy brain functionality. Most of the essential fatty acids can be found in the oily fish and not only are they important for your teen\u2019s brain but also for the heart and those sporty joints.<\/p>\n

    3. Blueberries<\/p>\n

    Next time you\u2019re baking the perfect blueberry cheesecake, don\u2019t stop your cranky teen from eating some of your blueberry toppings. bbcgoodfood.com notes that the fruit improves or delays short-term memory loss, assisting your child in studying and remembering everything from a long night of studying.<\/p>\n

    4. Eggs<\/p>\n

    According to bbcgoodfood.com, eggs contain vitamins B1, 3 and choline that plays a vital role in regulating normal brain function. \u201cCholine, which is rich in egg yolk, is needed for the formation of cell membranes and function,\u201d mentioned bbcgoodfood.com.<\/p>\n

    5. Broccoli<\/p>\n

    The underrated power of Broccoli is always taken for granted because of its appearance and taste but according to bbcgoodfood.com broccoli can help enhance cognitive function and has glucosinolates that keeps your teen\u2019s brain and memories sharp!<\/p>\n
