As per Dr. Weil in his website:
Five Recommended Lifestyle Changes:
Exercise your mind. Research shows that the old adage “use it or lose it” applies to your mental power as much as to the rest of your body. Crossword puzzles, mind games, and challenging reading or educational classes can all help you keep your brain agile and strong.
Exercise your body. Physical exercise seems to correlate with better mental function, perhaps because of improved circulation.
Eat a diet rich in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids. Vegetables and fruits are the best sources of antioxidants, although tea and dark chocolate contribute as well. Cold-water fish, freshly ground flaxseed and walnuts provide omega-3s.
Avoid alcohol. Alcohol’s damaging effect on brain cells is well established in the medical literature.
Reduce stress. Learn and practice regular relaxation techniques like meditation or yoga.
