The Evidence: Brain function declines at a markedly faster rate in nondrinkers than in moderate drinkers. Source: a Columbia University study of 1,416 people, published in Neuroepidemiology, 2006.
A study of nearly 60,000 Norwegian women found that expectant mothers who drank two cups of coffee per day were more likely to have underweight babies and longer pregnancies. The research established a link between caffeine consumption of 200-300 mg per day and lower birth weights, increasing the odds of a small baby by up to 62%. More than two cups of coffee per day was found to be especially risky. One cup of coffee per day was shown to lengthen labor by about eight hours.
Chocolate may help improve brain function and cognition. A study found that participants who consumed cocoa flavonols in moderate doses through beverages had improved memory, task switching, and hand-eye coordination. Flavonols present in dark chocolate are thought to increase insulin sensitivity and cerebral blood flow, strengthening brain function. Scientists also found that people who regularly consumed foods like chocolate, wine or tea rich in flavonols scored higher on cognitive tests than those with little flavonol intake. To gain these benefits, it is best to choose high quality dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa rather than typical candy bars.

1. Protein Diet Recipes
Eating programs that propound high levels of protein usually go hand in hand with a
limited consumption of carbohydrates. This can be a sure fire way to lose weight but
there should proper guidance as there could potentially be adverse effects. Aside from
weight loss, these types of diet are popular among athletes and body builders who
wish to bulk up muscle mass. While increased protein consumption is recommended
for weight lifters and sportsmen, there is still a ceiling as to the amount taken
especially if it is tie up with low-carbohydrate or zero-carbohydrate intake.
As we were taught when we were young, protein is a major source of energy. 50
grams is a widely accepted norm for intake with women needing less than men. The
weight of a person is also a factor. For high-protein regiments, it should be spread
throughout the day in all meals taken rather than just concentrated in one meal.These
simple and easy to prepare dishes are perfect examples that are delicious and
nutritious. One thing you’ll notice is the large amounts of meat and eggs combined
with vegetables. Conspicuously absent are the usual carbohydrate accompaniments
to these dishes.
For breakfast, go for a couple of eggs cooked any style with a portion of lean chicken
or turkey and a side salads of green leafy vegetables, tomatoes and cucumber. Keep
dressings and seasonings to simple vinaigrettes of red or white wine vinegar and extra
virgin olive oil. Another option would be low-fat yogurt topped with nuts or fresh
fruits. A lunch of meat, meat and more meat is common in high-protein diets. Go for
lean meat and complement with soft cheeses and beans and vegetables. For a non-
meat option, go for tofu and other soy products which are also rich sources of protein.
For dinner, it’s pretty much the same as lunch. Try barbecued, baked, broiled or
stewed chicken, lean pork, beef or fish balanced with fiber from a fresh salad or
cooked vegetable side dish like buttered carrots and beans. For the occasionally
carbohydrate dish, choose whole grains products like brown rice, bread of pasta.
Consider taking your dinner well before you go to bed as it is not recommended to
sleep with a heavy stomach as this strains the digestive system and liver. Proper
guidance is recommended as cholesterol levels can easily be elevated if this diet
programme goes overboard. Other potential health risks include gout, kidney and liver
problems, not to mention lack or energy and halitosis or bad breath.
