Have trouble remembering things? Here are a few tips: 1) Feed your brain. Foods rich in antioxidants, B vitamins or omega-3 can help your head. These include sweet potatoes, carrots, dark leafy greens, walnuts, almonds, berries, fish and milk. 2) Get your heart pumping. Take a brisk walk or engage in some other aerobic exercise at least 30 minutes a day. 3) Get a good night’s rest. Shoot for six to eight hours a night. Try to keep the same schedule on weekends that you have on weekdays. 4) Engage both sides of your brain. If you write down to-do lists, or you say things like, “Here I am putting my keys on the dresser,” you’re already doing this. 5) Use it or lose it. Like every other part of you, your brain needs activity to keep healthy. Learn a new skill. Study a new language or musical instrument. Solve a crossword puzzle. Memorize a poem or theatrical part.
