14. Avocado's = Consuming one fresh avocado per day may lead to improved cognitive function in healthy older adults thanks to increased lutein levels in the brain and eye, according to new research published in the journal nutrients.

15. Cruciferous vegetables = Broccoli, cauliflower, bok choy, brussels sprouts contain folate and have carotenoids that lower homo-cysteine ,amino acid linked with cognitive impairment.

16. Beans and legumes = These foods contain more folate, iron, magnesium and potassium that can help with general body function and neuron firing. They also contain choline, a B vitamin that boosts acetylcholine, neuro transmitter critical for brain function, Leafy greens, some ideas: kale, spinach, collard and mustard greens. These foods are high in folate and B9, which improve cognition and reduce depression.

17. Pumpkin Seeds, Chia Seeds, Flax Seeds, Sunflower Seeds = * Also - The B-vitamins, including vitamins B12, B6, B1, B2, niacin (B3) and folate (B9), have been implicated as protective risk factors against cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease.

18. B-12 complex, vitamin E in food's not supplement's = The B-vitamins, particularly folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6, are widely believed to be protective against Alzheimer’s disease and age-related cognitive decline.

19. Daily meditation - Practice Mindfulness = Examples: The Wisest Book, KJV Audio Bible-Psalms.

20. 6-8 Hours Sleep = Healthy Memory Training, Mindfulness Meditation.

22. If having memory problems? = Have your doctor check for Vitamin B-12 & D deficiency.

23. Cannabis Sativa = ‘Cannabis sativa’ female plants, used strains high in terpene alpha pinene to improve clarity, creativity, cognitive thinking. - Indica Terpene - may cause tiredness.

24. Psilocybin = "May have a therapeutic role in a range of psychiatric and neurological conditions due to their potential to stimulate neurogenesis, provoke neuroplasticity changes and reduce neuroinflammation" - Psilocybin

25. LSD = The invention features methods and compositions for the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease using lysergic acid diethylamide and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.

26. Psychedelic Cognition = Psychedelic compounds hold the promise of changing the face of neuroscience and psychiatry as we know it.

29. Lutein = Lutein is a non-provitamin A dietary carotenoid found in dark green leafy vegetables, corn, eggs, and avocados. Among the carotenoids, lutein and its isomer, zeaxanthin, are the only 2 that cross the blood–retina barrier to form macular pigment in the retina. More>>>

30. Zeaxanthin = Zeaxanthin is one of the most common carotenoids in nature, and is used in the xanthophyll cycle. Synthesized in plants and some micro-organisms, it is the pigment that gives paprika (made from bell peppers), corn, saffron, wolfberries, and many other plants and microbes their characteristic color.

31. Blackcurrant Juice = Attention, mood and brain wave spectral activity in young healthy volunteers.

*Foods that Decrease Cognitive Thinking:*

Navigate away from substances that may hinder cognitive health, such as aspartame, processed meats, sugars, and trans fats. Learn to identify and avoid these culprits for maintaining optimal brain function.

Foods that cause cognitive decline, to much complex carbohydrates cause toxin build up.

1. Aspartame = Methanol causes seizures, brain tumors- Alzheimer's. Avoid like poison.

2. White Food = Bread, pasta, cakes, sugar, rice, (whole grain breads can cause sugar spikes)

3. Beer = Contains nitrites.

4. Processed Meats = Bacon, smoked turkey, smoked ham, contain nitrosamines.

5. Microwave popcorn = Contains diacetyl that increases amyloid plaques in the brain.

6. Processed cheese = Mozzarella, cheez whiz, american cheese.

15. Indica = Cannabis indica, used less Indica strains high in Myrcene. (Myrcene is for rest/sleep, known to be a sedative) used only at bedtime if had any cognitive issues, used Sativa instead, strains high in Alpha Pinene. (Bake Capsule Tincture, Stop Smoking)

Used beta-caryophyllene to help overcome addiction

16. Cigarettes = Are one of mans most addictive substances, used a dugout or vaporizer

and received a (small, single dose) of strains high in beta-caryophyllene until addiction was overcome and stopped smoking. The key is to not fall back into the trap, other resources, Allen Carr, Psilocybin, Amanita Muscaria.

Note: It was best to ingest Cannabis strains with caryophyllene to help stop smoking and fight other addictions.

17. Nicotine = (Tobacco Patents) Become a non-smoker as million's have using Allen Carr's method.

Research has shown that the faster a drug reaches the brain, the more likely it is to be addicting. Different methods of delivery—smoking, injecting, or snorting—largely influence how quickly a drug reaches the brain. Delivery methods, genetics, and environment all influence the potential of a drug to cause addiction.
