Using Food to Boost Your Memory


Listen Later

In this episode, we continue our conversation with Dr. Uma Naidoo, diving deeper into the fascinating world of nutritional psychiatry. Dr. Naidoo answers listener questions about foods that can promote memory, fend off neuroinflammation, and support mental health at every stage of life. We discuss the role of intermittent fasting, the impact of processed and ultra-processed foods on cognition, and surprising connections between diet and depression. From brain-boosting foods like blueberries and turmeric to the potential of mood-enhancing ingredients like saffron, this episode is packed with practical tips for using food to nurture both mind and body.
