Here’s a heartfelt reminder to everyone focused on overall health and well-being this Valentine’s Day: Don’t forget about brain health.
In a time when self-love is of the utmost importance, this year’s Valentine’s Day means more than any other. There has been a shift in collective focus: love for our communities, love for our families and love for nature. Society has awakened to evidence-based science, with an understanding that the mind and brain are the most important tools to combat stressful times and challenges.
Anxiety surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic has plagued the world for close to a year, and BrainJuice recommends tried-and-true wellness rituals to combat disease and boost immunity, including daily exercise, plentiful sleep, routine medical exams and abstention from excess alcohol and tobacco usage.
This vitamin- and antioxidant-rich BrainJuice Power of Love’ smoothie recipe is packed with sweetness, tartness and a big punch of BrainJuice’s proprietary Brain Power Blend. Acting as a “hug” for the brain, this neuroprotective formula can provide focus, clarity and a mental boost to start the day off right.
