An individual’s mental health, I believe, is the most vital asset he or she possesses. At the end of the day, anything that we as a species achieved stems in our brain. It is, indeed, what distinguish human from animals. Yet not too many of us understand how to take good care of our brain, let alone go above and beyond to improve it.

In this article, I would like to show you four things you can do, 1 for each week, to achieve a stronger brain. Ready yet? Here goes.

1. The primary thing you have to do is to modify your diet. Nutrition is the building blocks of your brain. Eat more green leafy vegetables and supposing that you are already a vegan, make sure you subsidise your diet with vitamin B12. Know that without proper nutrition, nothing else you do would matter.

2. Do some cardio exercises. Use at least thirty minutes strolling - be it on a pasture or on a treadmill. This is also a great time to expose yourself to some sunlight - required for your body to create vitamin D. Cardio exercises also improve your motor skills and can prevent future immobility.

3. Some scientific researches have shown jogging stimulates neuron growth, yet this benefit vanish when you are in isolation. That means, you need to have social interaction. Social networking let you to make use of different parts of your brain and so encourage growth.

4. Finally, do some brain fitness program. These exercises are designed to confront your brain. Similar to your muscles, your brain grows more powerful when challenged. By frequently following a brain training, you are preventing future deteriorationby encouraging new neuron growth and slowing their death. Know that the social networking law also applies to mental exercises. In fact several studies have shown without social networking, mental exercises yield the opposite results.
