Colin - a vitamin-like substance - is rated by the scientific community as an excellent substance for the brain. Foods like fish, liver, eggs, fresh cheese, cod, peas, rice . are rich in colin. In it, egg yolk is the food with the most colin. In an egg yolk, there are nearly 500mg of colin, similar to 100g of liver, about as much as colin, 2.5 times more than in 100g of bird meat.

Colin has an effect on the body systems, used as a medicine to enhance the activity of liver cells. It has a good effect on memory, especially on the ' remember ' mechanism of memory. Through trials, it was discovered that after taking 10 grams of colin, the testers remembered better unrelated words.

Each day eat 2 omelette eggs or 1 serving of pâté, plus 100g of fresh cheeses with steak or fried meat will ensure sufficient supply of colin for the body.

In particular, the brains of chicks, ducklings or young birds have many of these memory substances. Because the newly hatched young bird needs to keep in mind the first thing is to discover the mother bird so as not to be confused with another child, not to be eaten. This ability of young birds and other young animals is called marking and memorization.

Folic acid and vitamins

'If you often have a tired, bored mood, have difficulty concentrating on a certain job or having a memory problem, you should think about the diet immediately.

Poor memory, irritability, distraction and forgetfulness associated with boredom may be mistakenly assessed as incapable of intellectual activity and especially without an organizational mind, 'Dr. Nguyen Thi Lam - Deputy Director of the National Institute of Nutrition recommended.

Brain activity will be severely destroyed if the diet is often deficient in vitamin C, B vitamins, especially B1, B2, B12 and even pholic acid.

Foods made from liver are not only a source of colin but also vitamin B6 and copper.

These substances ensure ' durability ' for our brain cells, helping them maintain a good working regime. Studies show that even a slight lack of these two substances for a long time can adversely affect nerve cells.

Pholic acid is abundant in coarse flour, bread made from this flour, in cauliflower, soybeans, green onions, mushrooms. In addition, in the liver, cheese, fish eggs are also high in this vitamin.

Headaches, anorexia, constipation are signs of vitamin B1 deficiency. Bread made from high quality white flour, milk cakes, sugar and sweets are vitamin B poor foods. If you eat a lot of these foods, your body is at risk of missing vitamin B.

To maintain memory, within a month you should drink honey milk - it has a lot of vitamins A and B and minerals. In addition, it is also possible to drink decoction of ginseng or lentils. When working intellectually, it is necessary to take medications that contain phosphorus and magnesium to enhance memory.
