DR. GREG’S 1% TIP: THE TOP THREE SUPPLEMENTS TO IMPROVE BRAIN PERFORMANCE

•Fish oil. Research provides overwhelming support for the use of fish oil to improve brain health. EPA and DHA, the omega-3 fatty acids in the oil, are linked with better mood, memory, and mental sharpness. Fish oil also reduces inflammation and pain in general. If you are daring enough to drink liquid fish oil directly, go for it! But you can also sneak it into your morning smoothie or your salads. For an omega-3 supplement, I recommend Living Fuel SuperEssentials Omega and Vega’s Antioxidant Omega Oil Blend.

•Rhodiola rosea. This is an herb that helps with stress management. It cannot get rid of your stress (now, that really would be a superfood!), but it will support your cortisol- producing adrenal glands and make your stress responses less drastic. This effect can decrease the stall in productivity that happens when tasks pile up and stress shuts you down. Daily use of this supplement can also improve your energy and focus. This herb has been deemed to be safe when taken for a short period of time (6 to 10 weeks), although the side effects are not known at this time. Long-term use has not been studied, and there is no reliable information about if it is safe for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

•Green tea extract. The health benefits of green tea are widely known, but consuming the recommended 10 cups a day is nearly impossible, so it can be useful to have the convenience of the encapsulated version. Green tea extract (EGCg) boosts energy, burns fat, and improves circulation. It also reduces inflammation, cancer risk, and LDL cholesterol. As one of the world’s most potent antioxidants, green tea extract really ought to be on every desk in every office across the country!
