Can nutrients we take alter our brain capacity, our thinking, our intelligence, yes I believe they can.

The human brain is the master control system of the body, the brain requires 20% of our oxygen and energy supply for over 100 billion brain cells. The blood flow of oxygen to the brain is essential to feed the brain with vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fatty acids. The brain cells use 5% of all sugar (glucose) in the blood and other organs will burn fat.

Oxygen to the brain is reduced when it combines with fats rather than blood sugar, this is called lipofuscin. Lipofuscin damages and kills brain cells and this is where antioxidant nutrients help by reducing free radical damage.

Blood sugar (glucose) is needed to produce ATP energy, which the brain depends on, the ATP molecules release stored energy to generate neurotransmitters and this then transports protein to cells and enhances the quality of your life.
