Poor Nutrition = Brain Drain🍰🍕🍟

Some of you remember the iconic commercial of an egg frying in a red hot pan, with the tagline “This is your brain on drugs”. Indicating drugs fry your brain.

Alarming though it may be, processed and fast foods may also fry your brain. They contain powerful chemicals called excitotoxins, which over excite brain tissue to the point of cell damage.

Fast/Processed Foods Lead to ❌

Headaches, Brain tumors, ADHD, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia and Depression. They’ve also been linked to hormonal and balance and weight gain.
