Answer 1

Walnuts are a great brain food.  In addition to the others' suggestions, add a handful of walnuts to your lunch.

Answer 2

Foods with the best brain sugars include the following:

Fruits: grapefruit, apples, cherries, oranges, and grapes have a low glycemic index. Fruits have a lower G.I. than fruit juices, because the fiber in the fruit slows the absorption of the fruit sugar. A whole apple will be more brain-friendly than apple juice; a whole orange better than orange juice. Freshly-made juice containing a lot of pulp is more brain-friendly than filtered juice.

Cereals and grains: oatmeal and bran have the lowest G.I. Other foods with a favorable G.I. are spaghetti and rice. Corn flakes and sugar-coated cereals have higher G.I.s.

Vegetables and legumes: Legumes, such as soybeans, kidney beans, chick peas, and lentils have the lowest glycemic index of any food. Potatoes and carrots have a much higher G.I.

Answer 3

I know that Bananas are somewhat of a brain food! I ate some during my exam week and it made me feel that I was helping my mind power, i dont even like them lmao

But whatever you choose to eat make sure it fills you and is slow release energy food, nothing worse thana sugar high and then a low sugar moment when you need to concentrate.

Answer 4

Try spinach and hummus sandwich with tomatoes, sprouts, etc.

Or you can try a bean wrap.  Use pinto or black beans, salsa, guacamole, and brown rice.  All the fiber and protein will be good for the brain.  If you use canned beans make sure to drain and rinse them, this will get rid of excess sodium and also get rid of the agent that causes flatulence.

Apples are great for keeping alert and will give you a little boost.
