Your eating habits are silently wrecking your brain.
Most people have no idea their eating habits are causing brain aging, brain fog, and chronic inflammation.
But these 9 cheat codes to reverse brain damage and restore cognitive function: 🧵
1. Drink Vinegar before your meals
Just 1 tablespoon in water cuts glucose spikes by 30%.
Acetic acid slows carb breakdown into brain-damaging sugar molecules.
Same meal, sharper mind.
2. Skip the sweet breakfast (or breakfast entirely).
Morning glucose spikes trigger all-day brain fog and cravings.
Your brain uses 20% of your energy but struggles with sugar crashes.
Try eggs instead of cereal. Or skip breakfast altogether for a small fasting boost.
3. Stay properly hydrated.
Even 2% dehydration impairs cognitive performance within hours.
Your brain is 75% water, so this isn't optional.
Aim for at least 2 liters a day. But don't overdo it.
If you drink too much, you can flush out important nutrients.
4. Walk for 10 at least minutes after eating.
Your muscles soak up excess glucose before it can damage brain cells.
Even light movement beats sitting still.
Think of it as brain maintenance.
5. Take 2-3 grams of omega-3s daily.
Omega-3s are your brain's fire extinguisher.
EPA and DHA reduce inflammatory cytokines by up to 30% in 8 weeks.
I take a premium Omega 3 fish oil with my FlowVeda every morning.
6. Start meals with vegetables.
Fiber creates a protective barrier that blocks 75% of glucose absorption. It also helps you feel full before you overeat what's not best for you.
Salad before pasta works better than willpower.
It's about timing, not restriction.
7. Fast for 16 hours daily.
After 12-14 hours, your liver produces ketones, premium brain fuel.
This triggers cellular repair and reduces inflammation.
Start with 12 hours and work up your way up.
8. Eliminate ultra-processed foods completely.
10% more processed food = 16% higher cognitive decline risk.
Food engineering hijacks dopamine while destroying neurons.
Real food or brain damage. Choose one.
Here's what shocked Harvard researchers:
Ultra-processed foods damage brains EVEN when people follow "healthy" diets.
Food processing matters more than food choice.
You can't out-Mediterranean-diet Doritos.
9. Optimize your B vitamin levels.
B9 (folate) and B6 are essential for neurotransmitter production and vascular brain health.
Even "normal" blood levels may be too low for optimal cognition.
Eat leafy greens daily or a quality B-complex.
If you're curious about what I personally use to supplement Vitamin B:
I take FlowVeda daily. It's a an all natural, ayurvedic formula for sharp focus, better brain health, and a calmer mind (backed by science).

The fastest wins? Start with strategies 1, 2, and 3.
People report clearer thinking within 48 hours.
Your brain has been running on sugar crashes for years.
Stable glucose = stable mind.
You don't need another superfood list.
You need to stop poisoning your neurons.
Because broken glucose = broken brain.
Be as vigilant about what you feed your brain as you do your body.
