According to http://www.webmd.com/diet/guide/eat-smart-healthier-brain
Whole grains are 'superfoods'. If you add whole grains to your daily diet, and you will increase your odds of maintaining a healthy brain for the rest of your life.
Whole grains, such as oatmeal, whole-grain breads, and brown rice can reduce the risk for heart disease. "Every organ in the body is dependent on blood flow," says Steven Pratt, MD, author of Superfoods Rx: Fourteen Foods Proven to Change Your Life.
"If you promote cardiovascular health, you're promoting good flow to the organ system, which includes the brain." While wheat germ is not technically a whole grain, it also goes on Ann Kulze 's "superfoods" list because in addition to fiber, it has vitamin E and some omega-3s.
Ann Kulze suggests 1/2 cup of whole-grain cereal, 1 slice of bread two-thee times day, or 2 tablespoons of wheat germ a day.
