JAKARTA - Do you often forget where you last placed your items? Forgetting to put things down can be just a small occurrence of the many things that you often forget. Even though it is done unconsciously, forgetting too often can also be bad for life.

If you forget too often, either on small or big events, it could be a sign that you have a neurodegenerative disease that causes memory loss, thinking and speaking skills, and behavior changes.

Many experts say prevention of this disease can be done by exercising regularly, reducing smoking habits, getting enough rest, and wisely managing stress. In addition, dietary factors also affect your memory.

Wine

Yup, 200 ml of wine per day is good for your health. Therefore, this intake can provide adequate levels of flavonoids in the brain. A number of studies say these substances are useful for brain nerves to form "new" memories and blood circulation in the active part of the brain.

Chocolate

Almost the same as wine, chocolate is also rich in flavonoids. According to an article by Gary L. Wenk, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology & Neuroscience & Molecular Virology, Immunology and Medical Genetics at Ohio State University, when adult women are given a chocolate drink, blood flow to their brains increases significantly in just two years. hour. The author of the book Your Brain on Food also explained that the performance of these women also developed in performing complex tasks.

Nuts

According to a study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology, intake of vitamin E helps prevent weakness in your memory. Nuts are a great source of vitamin E, as are green vegetables, black rice, and whole grains.

The iron content in meat can help improve your memory. Iron deficiency can have a major impact on your brain function and learning ability, and severely increases your risk of Alzheimer's disease. When dieting, what needs to be eliminated is fat, not iron content. So, make sure your iron intake is still fulfilled.
