Get a boost to the brain by indulging in chocolate, cold meat and plenty of sex....Wow. This is not my brain child to come up with such ideas but it is based on a study by International researchers and also reported in the Daily Mail.

According to the study, those who want to improve their mental ability should avoid smoking,  watching soap operas and hanging out with those those moan. Instead cuddling a baby, cheating at homework, reading out loud and doing a business degree can boost their mind power. The theories of the researchers are contained in the book-Teach Yourself, Training Your Brain.

"What we eat and drink, how we learn at school and whattype of moods we have are all crucial. People can make lifestyle choices that will constantly increase our cognitive capacity throughout our adult lives. Miz with people who make you laugh, have a good sense of humor or who share the same interests as you and avoid people who whinge, whine and complain, as people who are negative will make you depressed." This is quoted by Terry Horne, the author.

The researchers have claimed that sex has a very positive impact, listing seven chemicals the brain undergoes during intercourse which actually helps in improving its functioning ability. The book says that sex raises levels of oxytocin or the trust hormone which increases a person's readiness to think of novel or risky solutions to a problem.

Elements in dark chocolate also prove to be beneficial. Meganesium and antioxidant chemicals increase the supply of oxygen to the brain and reduce the chances of brain damage through a stroke. Ditching a low-fat diet is also recommended. The book suggests a breakfast of eggs, fish or cold meat- a lunch of protein based foods such as oily fish, and dark green vegetables and carbohydrates for dinner.
