A lot of people already tell me that I am very smart, but I just want to be smarter. Is there some kind of activity I could be taking part in? Maybe a diet? Or is there some place online that has free and easy ways to learn college level material. Also, is shrimp really a brain food?
Be clever in making use of your body and mind. Make best use of them.
how long does it normally take for the chemicals ,etc to kick in and start making the person feel disoriented etc?
why is this?
what are the chemicals doing to the brain or nerves?
also, how thought patterns change too?
please explain
btw, which area of the world are you?
and WHY some people just seem to eat crap all the time and not seem to be any different? do they just not know any better?..lol
thanks for your answers!
Some one who is used to eating a healthy diet full of vitamins and proper amounts of proteins would undoubtly suffer from switching to a processed food diet.
They’d be denying their body proper nutrition and this could lead to a chemical imbalance and feelings of depression, lack of energy, and irritability. This could happen in a matter of days to weeks.
Eventually they might get used to it, but all of these symptoms are a sign that the body is not getting all that it needs.
For vegetarians, going back to meat can cause them to feel sick, guilty, or not have any effect at all depending on the person. It also depends if they eat lean meats, or processed fast food meats.
And for those who "eat crap all the time" and seem to have no effect? it’s because they’re body has gotten used to such a diet that they don’t notice anymore. It never goes without effect though. They can still be unhealthy even thought they claim to feel fine, and many drawbacks will effect them later on life that they don’t consider at the time. Obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol are some drawbacks that often don’t come into play until years down the road.
Are there any known dietary supplements and foods that have been shown to improve brain function?
Not really. everything is under debate.
Omega 3-fish etc.
Glucose-proven
Chronium-proven to stablise glucose
Gingko bibloka-increases circulation and suposedly memory-takes a good two wks to kick in though. I did notice a slight difference-made me more alert and my concerntration improved.
There are things called smart pills or some name like that. They just seem to make you more alert though.
Fatty foods, preservatives slow down brain function. Better sticking with veggies.
