<p>Let's start a brain power boosting thread. Anything that you read that hones your mind, sharpens your brain, and makes it better overall, we will love to see what you have learned and share with us. Anything you read in magazines, articles, heard from certain people, etc., put it all here! I want to see how much brain power we can garner. Again, this info I read came solely from health magazines and the like that I remembered. I'll start.</p>

<p>-to challenge your mind or increase brain sharpness, if you are right-handed, brush your teeth with your left hand.</p>

<p>-take a multivitamin during the day, always, with food. no night.</p>

2

<p>Take showers with eyes closed.</p>

<p>Also take nootropics if you want (I know lots of people like Piracetam but i myself have never found it to do anything at all)</p>

3

<p>Eat a lot of fish.</p>

4

<p>TG, what does taking showers with eyes closed do? What did your reading say? And what are nootropics, where can we find them? Is it edible?</p>

5

<p>Training your memory has been clinically proven to increase your iQ score. I suggest looking up Dominic System and start memorizing strings of numbers and decks of playing. The cognitive benefits of this seemingly meaningless activity are enormous!</p>

<p>read. do your homework and study. do math problems.</p>

<p>Best to do all together the following three things:</p>

<p>Take fish oil, high quality. At least 1,000 mg a day.</p>

<p>Eat beets.</p>

<p>Eat eggs or liver.</p>

<hr>

<p>Exercise.</p>

<p>Take multi vitamin B</p>

<p>I second the fish/ fish oil comments…
Foods good for your brain:
-berries
-walnuts
-sesame seeds
forgot the rest but basically eat a lot of stuff with omega
-oh a mint makes your mind sharper, so it helps to chew mint gum during a test.</p>

<p>get enough sleep</p>

11

<p>sudoku and chess</p>

<p>This may sound awkward, but is there any particular fish oil supplement you recommend? Simply, the best one available, since there are so many that say we’re the best that i have doubts as to which one i should get. What brand is best/most high quality/gives best effects?</p>

13

<p>exercising</p>

14

<p>Play Dominoes</p>

15

<p>-amphetamines
-cocaine
-methylphenidate (Ritalin)</p>

16

<p>For fish oil, first of all, don’t look for effects immediately. It takes a few months.</p>

<p>Basically look for molecularly distilled fish oils which take out contaminants.</p>

<p>I use Trader Joe’s brand.</p>

<p>I’ve also used and like Artic Pure from Source Naturals. The enteric coated kind allows you to avoid the fish burps.</p>

<p>I am hesitant to recommend much, but those two should be fine.</p>

17

<p>I find the pursuit of ambidexterity sharpens mental acuity.</p>

<p>Also, Rubik’s cubes. These are some of the purest forms of mental ingenuity practice. On that same level is the game of chess.</p>

18

<p>Eq, I also heard Costco fish oil is supposedly very good.</p>

19

<p>Does fish oil really make you smarter?</p>

20

<p>No. What the hell is fish oil. </p>

<p>this topic isn’t about sharpening mental acuity, it’s more like get rich fast banter.</p>

<p>Unfortunately the only answer is hard work, not some sort of mental steroid abuse.</p>
