Best foods for the brain.

We all know that food not only for mental health but for everything is the main ingredient but I'm going to put a list of targeted foods that have the power to stimulate the functioning of the nervous system.
A good diet makes a difference not only in the mind but also in the body.
Any healthcare professional will tell you that this can make the difference between getting sick or not.

The human brain is a frankly gluttonous organ. Alone it consumes between 25% and 30% of the energy that the body can produce through food.
This is due to the fact that nerve cells, neurons that are many (about 100 billion in an adult) have a high metabolic level that requires a constant supply of oxygen (1/5 of all that we breathe), glucose and various essential nutrients.
Blood supplies the brain with 1/6 of all heart pumping.
Here are the main foods that you have to include in your diet.
Lettuce
Lettuce
Great for soothing irritation. The stalk has lactucin, a substance that works as a tranquilizer. Rich in folate. The lack of this element in the body causes depression, mental confusion and fatigue.
Milk
Milk
A lack of vitamin B complex can ruin your good mood. In addition to being present in milk, these substances are also found in peas, sunflower seeds, potatoes and fish. Milk also has calcium (which helps muscles relax) and protein (which stimulates the nervous system).
Orange
Orange

Rich in vitamin C, calcium and B vitamins, orange helps the nervous system work properly. The calcium present in its composition relaxes muscles and combats stress. And this fruit is still energetic, moisturizing and prevents fatigue.

Banana
Banana
Believe me, this fruit, so common in Brazilian lands, reduces anxiety and helps to ensure a peaceful sleep. She has these powers for being rich in carbohydrates, potassium, magnesium and biotin. The banana also gives the biggest kick because it has vitamin B6, giving energy.
Spinach
Spinach
The vegetable contains potassium and folic acid, which prevent depression. In addition, spinach has magnesium, folate and vitamins A, C and B complex, which help stabilize pressure and ensure the proper functioning of the nervous system.
Grape
Grape
This fruit has a good dose of B vitamins, which help in the functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin C and grape flavonoids are antioxidants, which delay skin aging and help fight cholesterol. In addition, it is energetic.
