If squirrels had the ability to talk, they would probably brag about how amazing nuts are for brain power.
Nuts (and seeds) are chockfull of zinc, which, according to the University of Lancashire, is effective in improving cognitive function. Nuts also contain vitamin E, which is an antioxidant that boosts cognitive function.
An article by Harvard Health Publishing highlights nuts as one of the foods linked to better brainpower. The article says that “Nuts are excellent sources of protein and healthy fats, and one type of nut in particular might also improve memory.”
Another study reveals that “Higher nut intake may be related to better overall cognition at older ages, and could be an easily-modifiable public health intervention.”.
