Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 is known to help in many aspects of the body. However, most people do not know that it can actually be beneficial to brain health. According to a recent study, there is a direct correlation between poor brain health and a deficiency in the B12 vitamin.

  • Birth to 6 months: 0.4 mcg
  • 7 to 12 months: 0.5 mcg
  • 1 to 3 years: 0.9 mcg
  • 4 to 8 years: 1.2 mcg
  • 9 to 13 years: 1.8 mcg
  • Teens 14-18 years: 2.4 mcg
  • Adults 18+: 2.4 mcg
  • Pregnant Women: 2.6 mcg
  • Breastfeeding Women: 2.8 mcg

There are many different foods that contain vitamin B12. Although plant foods do not contain any of this vitamin unless they are fortified. Some foods that naturally contain the most vitamin B12 are beef liver and clams. If those foods do not satisfy your taste buds then you can opt into eating fish, meat, poultry, and dairy products.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is another one of the brain health vitamins. That is because it supports brain health by serving as an antioxidant. The main benefits of vitamin C come into play when there is a deficiency.
