    Nuts

    Niacin and vitamin E are two key nutrients found in nuts such as almonds, walnuts, and cashews that are linked to improved brain function. These nutrients help to maintain brain power and reduce memory lost. Other sources of niacin are poultry, beans, and enriched grains while vitamin E is also predominant in vegetable oils, green leafy vegetables, and whole grains.
