Feeling fuzzy? Here are 5 ways to enhance your memory, sharpness and cognitive function:
Get Plenty of Exercise
Exercise is not only good for your body, it's also fantastic for your brain! In fact, science has proven regular fitness improves memory by stimulating the growth of new brain cells in a part of the brain called the hippocampus, responsible for long-term memory and imagination (making it more than possible that regular physical activity can improve creativity, as well).
Take Certain Supplements
Fish oils and omega-3 fatty acids can help tremendously in improving memory and cognitive function. A combo product that serves to assist in attention and focus is Metagenics Attencia, which pairs caffeine from phytonutrient (rich green coffee bean extract and guarana extract) with L-theanine, omega fatty acids and zinc. L-theanine combined with caffeine have proven to promote alertness, focus and cognitive performance, while zinc assists in the metabolism of neurotransmitters.
Improve Your Nutrition
You are what you eat, and so is your brain. Focus on improving your nutrition by switching to an anti-inflammatory diet that's high in protein and omega-3s. Blueberries, also coined "brainberries", are a tasty little fruit that can improve your brain function significantly, as can wild salmon, nuts and seeds, eggs and avocados.
Exercise Your Brain
In addition to physical fitness, you should also exercise your brain on the regular to improve cognitive function. Reading, crossword puzzles, intellectual conversation and doing math in your head are all on the list. Our team argues that hanging out with people smarter than you should be, too!
Get Quality Sleep
It's not just enough that you fall asleep and wake up everyday. For the best cognitive function, creativity and memory, you need to get restorative sleep – this means going to bed at the same time each night and waking up at the same time, too. For the best-quality snooze, skip the sound machine and turn off the tube. If you're having trouble justifying a good night's rest because you're too busy, remember this: a lack of sleep is the first area that contributes to disease-, trauma- and/or neglect-related memory problems. We hope these strategies will help you to obtain the sharpest, quickest intellect you've ever experienced!
This is a great hydrating product. Super light weight and absorbs well into the skin. Although the price has increased it’s worth it to buy. A critical component of my skincare routine
The first time I ever used this product was at the end of a hydrafacial at 8 west clinic. This was such a nice formula as it wasn’t heavy and didn’t leave white streaks even though it was an SPF. I most loved that there was a matte formula for my combo skin. It had a nice scent and is super light weight
I have been using this cleanser consistently for 7 years and it’s one of my favourite products. You only need a little bit to get an effective cleanse. The formula isn’t too strong for my sensitive skin
I received a sample of the glo sunkiss bronzer with my last pressed powder purchase and have been using it as a contouring highlighter and it is beautiful. A little goes a long way. The colour is universal and enhances a variety of skin tones. Such a beautiful product. Thank you, for such a useful gift.
Once again I order 2 pressed powder by glo skin beauty from JoyVIVA and I am very satisfied. They sent out the product within a short time of ordering and I had it within days. They added a lovely set of gifts: glow skin beauty and longer face serum which I’m really enjoying and may even order. I appreciate their efficiency and value over other cosmetic providers. Thank you for a seamless process.
