Dr. Maya Feller shares her favorite recipes for brain health.

While there is no singular food fix for better brain health, there are properties in certain ingredients that some nutritionists recommend based on scientific research and studies to incorporate in a healthy, well-rounded and varied diet.

She explained that the "diversity in gut bacteria plays a role in mood, memory, cognition and the development of neurodegenerative conditions. The make-up of the gut is impacted by the foods we eat." While Feller said there's "not a particular magic number" of how much of a brain-healthy ingredient to consume," she added, "The recommendation is to eat a variety of plant foods and to make them a mainstay in the pattern of eating."
