If you\u2019re multitasking, trying to get ahead at work, or taking care of a busy family &#8211; now is the time to start keeping your brain in better shape!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as you care for your body by working up a good sweat on a regular basis and eating your daily greens, your brain requires constant stimulus and nutrition to prevent it from degenerating. Healthcare professionals and neurological experts advise that giving your body and brain frequent workouts can stimulate your cognitive function and improve your memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are four easy-to-follow tips designed to help you maintain a healthy, active brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Exercise<\/strong> <br>As it turns out, physical activity also benefits your mental muscle. Studies have shown that just 40 minutes of daily brisk walking can improve brain function by increasing blood flow to the brain and boosting brain connectivity. Even three times a week can make a difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eat Right<\/strong><br>A healthy diet that includes vegetables, fruits, whole grains and low-fat food is important for maintaining a healthy brain \u2013 and you can help enhance that with Omega-3 supplements. Fish oil is a great source of Omeag-3, as it contains essential fatty acids like EPA (eicosapentaenoic) and DHA (docosahexaenoic) \u2013 so it supports your brain health. DHA is found in high concentrations in the brain and nervous system and is vital to ensure they function properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whichever fish oil supplement you choose, remember to look for a premium-quality brand with wild-sourced fish and high levels of Omega-3. For example, Swisse offers a fish oil concentrate with a full  <a href=\"\/products\/omegas\/swisse-ultiboost-odourless-high-strength-wild-fish-oil\/\">1,500mg of Omega-3<\/a>  in one \u2013a \u2013day capsules \u2013 50% more omega 3 than the industry\u2019s standard 1000mg capsule. They also offer tasty fish oil capsules specially formulated for children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"\/products\/omegas\/\">You can find out more about omega supplements here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Relax<\/strong><br>During stressful times the brain releases chemicals. Constant stress can lead to changes in brain function and affect our mental health. Counter this by indulging in relaxing activities such as yoga, meditation and breathing practice, or participating in enjoyable social interaction to still your mind. A restful night\u2019s sleep is also essential in keeping your memory sharp, so cultivate good sleeping habits to keep your mind fresh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Challenge Yourself<\/strong><br>Stimulate your brain by picking up a new hobby or learning a new skill. For example, learn how to speak a new language or play a musical instrument, or take up chess or mahjong to keep your brain active. And the more often you learn something new, the more your brain will benefit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern life takes its toll on every part of us, including the most complex organ in your body, your brain.
