Becoming The CEO Of Your Home


by Hedrick Lepsch


Fall is in full swing and students across the country are already feeling the crunch of mid-term exams. With late night study sessions, classes, extracurricular activities, and a social life, many students struggle to maintain a healthy diet, resorting to grabbing quick, easy meals that lack the vitamins and nutrients your body needs.

Without essential vitamins and nutrients the human brain can slow down and stop functioning as efficiently as we may like. Lucky for you, I've taken the time to learn a few things about fast food that gives your brain a boost.

The most commonly accepted answer to this frequent query is that classical music offers your brain the most optimal stimulus, allowing for maximum performance in memory and retention. Composers like Mozart, Bach, Tchaikovsky, and Beethoven are among the most popularly recommended as the soundtrack for your study session.

So that's the general job description of the home CEO. When you break it down though, the responsibilities are vast and numerous.

Most studies involving classical music show that study participants experienced an increased ability to retain information and tested better than participants who were not exposed to classical music prior to testing.

At the top of the list is the Kakadu plum, found primarily in Australia. Other sources that are high on the list include Black and Red Currants, Kiwi fruit, Red Peppers, Broccoli, Parsley, and Guava.

According to researchers, vitamin E may reduce cognitive decline. In its primary function it serves the body as an antioxidant, and protects your cells from oxidative damage. Good sources of Vitamin E are Almonds, Hazelnuts, Avocados, Asparagus, and Spinach.

As your body's primary source of energy, glucose should be a vital part of your diet. Glucose is a vital carbohydrate that your brain and body need to get you through the day.

Songs within this tempo range create a relaxed environment for the brain, allowing for better creativity and performance.

Third, finances are your responsibility. Not only are you the CEO, but you have to be the CFO (Chief Financial Officer) as well, and make sure you never go outside of your financial ability.

Obviously, the music you choose to listen to while studying can be effective in helping you retain the information you need for your next test whether you're studying for a math exam or your anatomy final for your nursing degree. But what matters most is that you create a space for studying that is distraction free.

Fall is in the air and it's the perfect time to grab a handful of roasted pumpkin seeds, which are high in zinc. Noted for its ability to help boost memory and cognitive skills, zinc can also be found in sunflower seeds, nuts, and beans.

Whether you're the over achieving student striving for a double major in business and web design, or if you're like most of us who just want to pass the college math course, these foods are great sources of brain boosting vitamins that will help you think more clearly.
