Episode 335 - Brain Health - Nutrition for Neurons and Memory

This YouTube transcript from "RESPIRE" discusses the crucial role of nutrition in maintaining and enhancing brain health and memory. It highlights that diet provides the structural elements for neurons. The speaker differentiates between general health habits that indirectly affect the brain, such as sleep and exercise, and foods that directly impact neuronal function. The main focus is on essential fatty acids, particularly EPA Omega-3s, found in fish, walnuts, and chia seeds, which are vital for the structural integrity of brain cells and cognitive function. The video suggests aiming for a daily intake of at least 1.5 grams of EPA and hints at strategies for developing a preference for brain-healthy foods.
