Top Super Brain Foods For Kids
Friday, May 9, 2014
We all know that we need to eat the right diet for the good of our physical health. As a student of self development and a pursuer of knowledge, the study of the human brain is a fascinating area for you to focus on. Studies prove time and time again that there is a great positive correlation with the types of foods children eat and their mood, attention spans, behavior, and test scores.
Children in their growing years need proper food for their overall growth as well as for their brain development. The foods consumed by children affect their learning skills and improves their ability to concentrate. Studies have found that food containing essential nutrients and vitamins has the ability to boost the brain power. Below are top super "brain foods" that may help boost a childs brain development and growth.
1. Eggs
Eggs offer protein, and theyre one of the few foods that naturally contain vitamin D, which helps the body absorb calcium. Eating protein at breakfast helps kids feel satisfied longer (no mid-morning hunger). Eggs contain protein and nutrients like omega -3 fatty acid, choline, Zinc and lutein. These nutrients are necessary for brain development and function. Choline present in egg is vital for the formation of memory stem cells. The more the stem cells, the better will be the memory power. Choline rich foods promote memory cell production throughout the childhood.
How To Serve?

• If your child hates eggs disguise them in toast with whole grain breads.
• You can use scrambled eggs to fill in tortillas as a snack.

Fish provide a healthy dose of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for brain health. According to an article in the “American Journal of Clinical Nutrition," omega-3s account for 40 percent of the fatty acids in brain membranes and have a significant effect on cognitive function and growth. The most abundant sources of omega-3 fatty acids are fatty fish such as salmon, tuna and mackerel. In addition to following a balanced diet, consuming these foods at least twice a week will provide adequate amounts of omega-3 fatty acids.
How To Serve?
Water is a highly overlooked food for children. School going children drink very little water and this can affect the proper brain function. When the children get dehydrated after playing they will be irritable and lethargic and will not be in a frame of mind to listen or memorize.

15) Cereals
Even if your child had a bowl for breakfast, fortified whole grain cereals are a snack thats rich in folate, complex carbs, and easy-to-access protein. Fortified cereals are also a great source of vitamin B12, linked to how well we remember things, reports the National Institutes of Health.

• If your child hates eggs disguise them in toast with whole grain breads.
• You can use scrambled eggs to fill in tortillas as a snack.
2. Berries
Berries like blueberries and strawberries are high in antioxidants. These antioxidants are expected to improve the cognitive skills in humans. This food will improve the memory power and the vitamin C present in the berries will improve the immune system as well. The antioxidants prevent the oxidative stress on brain function.
How To Serve?
- Apply penut butter on bread slices and keep sliced berries in between to make a brain power house.
- Add different types of berries to the cereals or oatmeal
- You can add them in fruit salads or other desserts
3. Oatmeal
Research shows that kids who eat oatmeal are better able to concentrate and pay attention in school. Fiber-rich whole grains, like oatmeal, digest slowly, providing kids with a steady stream of energy. Oatmeal is rich in fiber and protein and helps to keep the arteries of the brain and heart clear.
It has been found that children who eat oatmeal were better at memory tasks and map skills. Oatmeal digests slowly and provides the kids with a steady supply of energy for a long time.
How To Serve?

- Do not add sugar; instead use honey or maple syrup to sweeten the oatmeal.
4. Nuts
Nuts and nut butter have long been known for their protein, but they also provide essential nutrients for the brain. Researchers have linked tree nuts to a decreased risk of many diseases. Now there’s evidence that they also improve cognition.
Most of the nuts have high concentrations of vitamin E, B vitamins, antioxidants, magnesium, minerals and Omega-3s. All support the nervous system. The walnut’s shape resembles a brain, so why shouldnt it be a brain food? Almonds may help save your memory. As these are filled with vitamin E. Vitamin E has been linked to improved brain performance.

They are a rich source of complex carbohydrates and hence helps to maintain an even glucose level in the blood throughout the day. The brain needs a constant source of fuel, in the form of glucose, to properly function.

In addition to following a balanced diet, consuming these foods at least twice a week will provide adequate amounts of omega-3 fatty acids.

Man, this blog just keeps getting better. Today, it’s on seasoning your food well, and what to do if you under- or overdo it.
2) NY Times: Saving Time and Stress with Cooking Co-ops
Oo! I love this. It’s like a potluck, but in take-home Tupperware. Sure, there are drawbacks (one dastardly participant relied too much on Hamburger Helper), but cooking one meal for many, and then getting six meals back, seems like an all-around win. (Photo is from the piece.)
3) Casual Kitchen: On the Benefits of Being a Part-Time Vegetarian
The CK household cut their meat intake by a few meals per week, and the benefits have been totes faboo. Here, Dan explains why, what happened, and how you might embark on the same glorious path.
4) NY Times: Food is the Thrill at Some Bachelor Parties
Move over strippers, here come Bruschetta Chicken Dippers. Or something. Point is, engaged peeps are apparently forgoing traditional bachelor and bachelorette parties for full-on gourmet experiences. Is it because Americans are getting married at more advanced ages, thus reducing the demand for some chick/dude in spangled undies to flash her/his bosoms/pecs? Beats me. I just want some pork belly.
5) Get Rich Slowly: The Battle of the Bulge, and the Battle of the Budget
On the link between debt and fat, and how going cold turkey may not be the best approach for either. You’ve heard the message before, but never in so entertaining and thorough a manner.

The Center for Science in the Public Interest (or CSPI, presumably) might/is sue/suing over the inclusion of toys in Happy Meals. They claim tiny Buzz Lightyears and Shreks entice kids to choose unhealthy food. As an ex-McDonald’s employee, I can only say … I guess? I don’t recall. It was 1996. Bringing them up from the basement was a big pain in the tuchus, though.
9) Food Politics: Alaska Fishing Politics – Fish Processing
Marion Nestle is doing a blog mini-series on the fishing industry in our northernmost state. It’s more complicated than you think, and an interesting microcosm of our issues in the lower 48.
10) Chow: 9 Cooking Apps Worth Downloading to Your iPhone
Dunno if this applies much for the frugalists out there, but Husband-Elect would become Ex-Husband-Elect if I didn’t link to these apps. (He loves apps. Apps, apps, apps. It’s all I ever hear about. “Hey honey, did you get those apps?”)
