How to provide nutrients for brain health

　　With the development of society, the tense pace of life and high-intensity work pressure, many mental workers feel exhausted, suffer from memory loss and reduced work efficiency. Research results in recent years have shown that neglecting dietary nutrition will accelerate the occurrence of premature aging mentioned above. A balanced diet, especially the nutrition and nutrition of certain vitamins and minerals nerve System functions are closely related.

　　Vitamin A deficiency can affect visual function, impaired dark adaptation, and abnormal electroretinogram. Intellectual workers often read for long periods of time or face computer screens all day long. They also need adequate intake of vitamin A to maintain good vision. Chinese doctors gave more than 200 subjects a compound preparation of vitamins A, E, and vitamin C for 6 to 9 months, which can help eliminate fatigue, improve memory, improve vision, and increase cerebral blood flow.

　　Domestic and foreign studies have pointed out that a variety of B vitamins are related to brain health and intelligence. Grape The process of sugar providing energy to the brain depends on the participation of vitamin B1. If the staple food is white rice and noodles and the non-staple food is too monotonous, vitamin B1 deficiency may occur and neurological symptoms may occur. Plasma vitamin B1 in Alzheimer's disease patients is also lower than that of ordinary people. Choline and lecithin can provide the precursor of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Choline deficiency can cause nerve conduction disorders, thereby affecting intelligence. When vitamin B12 and folic acid are deficient, their plasma concentrations decrease, causing blood homocysteine ​​levels to increase, which has toxic effects on the nervous system. It has been reported that deficiencies in vitamin B12 and folic acid can cause impaired learning and memory.

　　Trace elements iron, iodine, zinc, etc. are closely related to brain development. Iron deficiency causes children to be distracted and have low IQ.； Iron deficiency in adults also affects brain function. But too much iron can also cause damage to the brain. Zinc has a protective effect on oxidative damage to cell membranes, and can prevent aluminum deposition in the brain, which is beneficial to preventing Alzheimer's disease.

　　In short, if mental workers want to maintain clear thinking and good memory, they need an adequate supply of nutrients. At ordinary times, you should pay attention to food diversity and reasonable combination. If you are busy at work and often use fast food, you should take appropriate vitamin and mineral supplements to avoid certain nutritional deficiencies. Try to choose products with scientific and balanced formulas, containing comprehensive antioxidants, without gastrointestinal discomfort, and safe to take to provide comprehensive and easy nutritional care for mental workers.
