Brain cells couldn’t reproduce like other cells or we would lose the memories of those old cells.

Eat a varied diet of vegetables, fruits, nuts, grains, and proteins so you know you are getting everything you need. Omega 3 is easy to take in capsules if you don’t want to actually eat tuna or salmon.

Much better to eat home-cooked foods from fresh ingredients. Don’t over-eat. but eat well.
