食疗:帮你提高记忆力的食物

Fruits & Vegetables 水果和蔬菜

Let’s not knock our friends, fruits and vegetables, however. Man cannot live (or learn) on herbs and tea alone, we need food.  The thing to remember about memory boosting foods is color. You want dark reds, blues and greens. Apples contain quercetin which protects against memory loss. Blueberries (and red beets) have another great anti-oxidant called anthocyanin which performs the same function. Red onions and grapes contain both.
不过我们可不能这么打击我们的老朋友水果和蔬菜。我们不能光靠草本植物和茶存活，还得吃东西。记住，想要提高记忆力，食物的颜色很重要，我们要的是暗红色、深蓝色和深绿色。苹果富含槲皮素可以帮我们抵抗健忘症，蓝莓（还有深红色的甜菜）则含有花青素，这也是一种能抵抗记忆衰退的抗氧化剂。红洋葱和葡萄则都含有槲皮素和花青素。

Combine red and blue and you get the purple of eggplant, a food rich in nasunin which protects the lipids in our brain tissue. Dark green vegetables like broccoli, spinach, brussels sprouts and romaine lettuce are high in folic acid which several studies have show to prevent and even reverse memory loss.
红色和蓝色组合，就有了紫色的茄子，富含花翠苷，保护我们大脑组织内的脂肪。花椰菜、菠菜、甘蓝和莴苣等深绿色蔬菜中含有大量叶酸，这是经研究证明防止健忘甚至提高记忆力的重要元素。
