American neuroscientist Emily MacDonald published tips on the “Tik Tok” platform to prevent symptoms such as brain fog and forgetfulness, including avoiding processed foods, according to what was published by the British newspaper “Mirror”.
McDonald revealed the three habits you should avoid to “keep your brain young,” including waiting 20 minutes before using your smartphone in the morning.
Morning phone time
McDonald added that one should not unlock their phone as soon as they wake up in the morning, but should wait at least twenty minutes before starting to use their smartphone.
MacDonald explained that the brain is in a transitional phase between sleep and wakefulness, so what is put into the mind is crucial, just as using a smartphone immediately after waking affects the body’s release of dopamine, “It creates a passion to keep the person wanting to pick up his phone,” in Whereas it is correct to “wake up, listen and say positive affirmations”.
The same goes for before bed, McDonald said: TVs, laptops and the phone should all be turned off within an hour before bed.
Processed foods
Surprisingly, she advised avoiding processed foods such as cheese slices and potato chips, which can also have a negative effect on the brain, explaining that processed foods have been linked to “cognitive aging”, which leads to brain fog and forgetfulness.
McDonald recommended eating “whole foods and good fats that are good for the brain, like avocados and cranberries.”
Positivity with self and meditation
She also emphasized the importance of avoiding negative self-talk, explaining that “what one says to oneself changes one’s view of the world.” She stated that if a person “says today is going to be great” it sends an affirming message to the mind to look for good and wonderful things.
MacDonald said that one of the best things for the mind is meditation, and it is best to do this in the morning before I start work, stressing that the practice of meditation has great anti-aging properties and increases the ability to focus, as it increases the rates of birth of new brain cells in the hippocampus, which is the part The brain that controls learning and memory.
