Here are the top seven foods to help you grow new brain cells. Hi, I’m Dr. Shintani, MD nutritionist trained at Harvard. Research now shows that contrary to popular belief, we actually can grow new brain cells even into old age. The key is BDNF or brain-derived neurotrophic factors that stimulate brain cell growth. Here are seven of the top foods and the nutrients that help produce BDNF. Number one, blueberries provide anthocyanins. Two, red grapes provide resveratrol. Number three, green tea provides EGCG. Number four, coffee provides chlorogenic acid. Number five, turmeric provides curcumin. Number six, flaxseed and fatty fish provides omega-3 oils. And number seven, dark chocolate provides polyphenols and procyanidins.
