In this episode… Parents often prioritize feeding their children's growing bodies but overlook the importance of nourishing their developing brains. Essential foods with nutrients crucial for brain development, performance, and overall health are not always readily available and are often too expensive. Nevertheless, frequently consuming these essential nutrients is vital.  The brain is the most cardinal organ in our body, regulating our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Therefore, feeding our brains with the proper nutrients should be a top priority. Unfortunately, our everyday foods aren't enough to provide all the essential nutrients for cognitive health. This is why we need to make a conscious effort to consume brain foods in our daily diet. Since most of us only consume 20% of the daily essential nutrients our brains need to thrive, Tina White says that incorporating these foods into your regular meal plan can fuel your brain for success. A well-fed brain leads to optimum short- and long-term mental health and focus.  On this episode of the Firebelly Social Show, Duncan Alney and Arnelle Mitchell talk with Tina White, Chief Commercial Officer at Brainiac Foods, about fueling your body with brain foods. Tina talks about the common problems with accessing brain foods, how Brainiac Foods was born, the impacts of brain foods on cognitive health, the various products they produce, and the trends in the brain foods space.
