Memory supplements are probably bogus, a food and drug chemist says. Protein from plant sources such as nuts, whole grains, and berries is the best support, he says.

Summary

Skip the dubious memory pills, says a leading scientist. Instead, focus on plant protein from nuts, beans, and whole grains to keep your aging brain healthy. The Nurses’ Health Study shows women who eat more plant protein have sharper minds and better overall health. Snack on nuts, swap meat for lentils, and add berries like blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries to your diet. They’re packed with antioxidants and beneficial compounds that support brain function. Regular berry consumption is linked to better performance on memory tests.
