3 Mental Benefits of Eating Healthy Foods

We never lose our enthusiasm for emphasizing the awesome health benefits from eating healthy foods like our Hawaiian-inspired poké items. This time, we want to discuss the mental benefits. While we’ve already covered several reasons poké makes you physically healthier, we also know that a good diet improves cognitive performance.

3 Mental Benefits of Eating Healthy Foods Like Poké

Here are three excellent ways a healthy diet bolsters brain activity.

Supercharge Your Energy Levels

Not all energy sources are clean and safe these days. Even a nice cup of coffee could become a problem when taken to excess. Therefore, we recommend obtaining more energy and protein through our freshly-sourced salmon, tuna, shrimp, and other seafood items. Academic research has shown a pretty clear link between seafood consumption and essential beneficial nutrients like Vitamin B-12. Many of us are aware that B-12 is the proverbial energy powerhouse.

Enhance Brain Functionality

We wouldn’t want you to depend on our word for anything. Find out what the folks at WebMD have to say on the subject. In layman’s terms, you can eat certain foods like salmon, berries, and even dark chocolate to achieve better brain performance.

Put Yourself in a Better Mood

If you can swap out nutrient-deficient and dehydrating food for fresh veggies, seafood, and other proteins, your mood will improve drastically. On the other hand, whenever we overdo it with junky carbs (soda, candy, etc.), we can expect the physical toll on our bodies to eventually impact our state of mind too.

We hope you find these mental benefits of eating healthy interesting and motivational. They should serve as a catalyst for good eating, something we could all probably stand to do better.

You can visit us any time and dismiss any notion that healthy dining comes at the expense of great taste and satiety. We deliver both every day in Downers Grove.

Island Fin Poké Downers Grove is the best place to go for great seafood served in what we call poké bowls. If you’d like to learn more about the kind of ingredients we use or have any other questions, call us at 630-324-6110.
