One cup of blueberries a day could be the simplest way to supercharge your brain An analysis of 11 studies suggests blueberry consumption can improve certain aspects of memory, executive function, and psychomotor function across various ages, from children to older adults The power players in blueberries are these compounds called anthocyanins—powerful flavonoids that boost vascular function and brain blood flow If you're not a fan of blueberries, try supplementing with CocoaVia — a cacao powder high in similar polyphenols It's been shown in clinical studies to improve blood flow to the brain as well as cognition & memory in older adults

A daily multivitamin could significantly reverse cognitive aging by up to 5 years Multiple randomized controlled trials show older adults taking a standard multivitamin (like Centrum Silver) had measurable improvements in processing speed, cognition, and episodic memory (the ability to recall experiences and events) Far from being "expensive urine," a multivitamin can actually make your brain functionally younger—restoring memory to levels seen five years earlier

Lutein and zeaxanthin directly support both vision and cognition in ways we can measure Clinical trials show that supplementing them (often via a multivitamin) reduces risk of age-related macular degeneration and protects retinal function Other studies demonstrate that these carotenoids build up in the brain and improve cognitive performance across age groups Kale and other dark leafy greens are rich sources, but choosing a multivitamin that includes lutein and zeaxanthin ensures you get meaningful amounts every day

Taking a daily multivitamin can reverse cognitive aging by several years Multiple randomized controlled trials found that older adults who took a basic multivitamin (like Centrum Silver) experienced clear improvements in overall cognitive function This included faster processing speed and dramatically enhanced episodic memory (the memory used to recall personal experiences and events) Far from useless, a simple multivitamin could be one of your strongest allies against cognitive decline

A daily multivitamin may be one of the lowest-effort ways to make an older brain functionally younger In large randomized trials of older adults (65+), those taking a basic multivitamin (Centrum Silver) showed better overall cognition, about a 2-year reduction in global brain aging, and ~4.8 years' improvement in episodic memory (the ability to remember events and experiences) Given that ~60% of Americans are low in vitamin E, ~45–50% in magnesium, ~35% in vitamin C, and 80–90% in omega-3s (with additional gaps in vitamin K and calcium), it’s clear many brains are running on suboptimal micronutrient status For many, a basic multivitamin is a practical way to close these gaps and protect cognitive function with age

90% of people aren’t getting enough choline, and it’s quietly driving up their risk for heart disease and dementia Even slight deficiencies in choline can elevate homocysteine levels—a biomarker strongly linked to cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline Choline is also vital for brain function and development In fact, a randomized controlled trial found that pregnant women who increased their daily choline intake from roughly 500 milligrams (the recommended amount) to about 900 milligrams had children who scored dramatically higher on IQ and cognitive function tests Fortunately, eating around ~3 eggs per day or supplementing with phosphatidylcholine can correct this deficiency

Beetroot powder can immediately enhance cognitive performance by increasing blood flow directly to your brain High levels of nitrates in beets convert rapidly into nitric oxide, dilating blood vessels and ensuring efficient oxygen delivery to critical brain areas involved in focus, memory, and decision-making (a process known as neurovascular coupling) Clinical research supports noticeable cognitive benefits, including faster neuronal responses Rhonda's protocol: 1.5-2 tbsp of the NOW brand beetroot extract (no affiliation — it's low-sugar and NSF-certified for purity) mid-afternoon for a cognitive boost

These are the supplements I give my aging parents: • A daily multivitamin • Vitamin D • High-DHA omega-3s • Ubiquinol (the reduced form of CoQ10) • Sulforaphane Why these? Large RCTs show improved cognition in older adults taking a standard multivitamin, with benefits equivalent to a brain that's 2-5 years younger. For vitamin D, more than 70% of older U.S. adults are insufficient, and aging skin produces far less vitamin D from sunlight (a 70-year-old makes roughly 4x less than their 20-year-old self). DHA is a key structural fat in the brain and supports cognitive function, especially important with aging and neurodegenerative risk, while CoQ10 supports mitochondrial energy production as levels drop with age. Finally, sulforaphane is a powerful activator of Nrf2, the body's master stress-response pathway, up-regulating glutathione and phase II detox enzymes.

A daily multivitamin can reduce brain aging and modestly slow down epigenetic aging clocks. In the COSMOS trial, older adults who took a standard Centrum Silver multivitamin daily for about 4 years performed better on cognitive tests and showed the equivalent of ~2 years less brain aging compared with those taking a placebo. The multivitamin also slowed epigenetic aging clocks, with an effect equivalent to about 2.7 to 5 months of slowed biological aging. That may sound modest, but I don’t think it’s trivial, and Prof Steve Horvath says that effects from safe, low-cost interventions can matter if they’re sustained over years to decades—2 months of slower biological aging could translate to 2.5 years if a good habit is maintained. These data push back on the idea that multivitamins are “completely useless.” If you’re filling nutritional gaps consistently over time, even a small benefit to cognition and biological aging could become meaningful. From the latest episode of the FoundMyFitness podcast.

If you're sleep deprived, one of the best things you can do (counterintuitively) is high-intensity exercise. A few hours of sleep deprivation reduces insulin sensitivity and impairs cognitive function. But just 10 minutes of HIIT can enhance brain blood flow, cognitive performance, and blood glucose regulation. It can take you back to baseline, or even above it, for several hours or until you can get adequate sleep. You may not feel like going hard when you're tired, but the short-term benefits are real. Just don't make poor sleep a habit.

Taking 10 grams of creatine daily might elevate your brain's creatine stores twice as much compared to lower doses (2–4 grams) While 5 grams per day saturates muscles, higher doses (~10 grams daily) allow creatine to "spill over" into the brain, bones, and immune system Neuroimaging studies confirm this 10-gram dose significantly boosts brain energy, improving mitochondrial function in areas critical for mood, memory, and cognition Under severe stress—like sleep deprivation—higher doses (25–30 grams) rapidly increase brain creatine and high-energy phosphates, reversing cognitive deficits and even enhancing brain function beyond normal rested levels

Effortful exercise improves cognition. It is brain and cognitive maintenance. If I want an immediate boost in alertness, focus, and mental sharpness, I’ll do a short bout of vigorous exercise before a podcast or public speaking engagement. It’s the fastest, most reliable, and consistent way to flip the switch on short-term cognitive performance. Study after study shows that even ~10 minutes of movement, especially at a higher intensity, can acutely enhance executive function, attention, and memory. It also tends to reduce anxiety and improve your ability to filter distractions, which is basically the cognitive state you want when you need to perform. If you have an important presentation, an interview, or deep work that demands mental clarity, try a brief, intense session beforehand. Clip from my recent appearance on the PBD Podcast.

Do you still believe that cognitive decline is an inevitable part of aging? A double-blind, randomized clinical trial (the gold standard of science) challenges this narrative. The study found that for adults aged 65-80, daily consumption of wild blueberries improved brain processing speed. Anthocyanins, abundant in wild blueberries, sharpen how quickly your neurons communicate with each other. If a simple dietary shift can measurably upgrade your executive function, why are you still waiting for a pharmaceutical "fix"? Action Plan: 1. Opt for wild blueberries (often found in the freezer aisle) 2. Aim for approximately one cup daily to match the levels used in clinical studies. 3. Make it a non-negotiable part of your morning routine to see the cumulative metabolic benefits. #HealthyLifestyle #NutritionScience
