Getting high has been known to cause negative effects on your brain like memory loss (due to shrinkage of your hippocampus.) However if you’re like me and do not want to lay off the grass then you should consider buying vitamins or supplements that combat the impact weed has on your body and brain.
The first vitamin you should be getting plenty of is Omega-3 Fatty acids. This can be found in fish, fish oils and krill oil. Omega-3 helps your brain generate new neurons and can grow your hippocampus. Apart from healing your brain, it also reduces chances of heart disease, anxiety and depression. This is the first vitamin I recommend since it improves your brain health, heart health and overall mood. You can buy Omega-3 in capsule or oil form.
The second Vitamin I recommend taking is B12. There is a direct relationship between a deficiency of B-12 and memory loss, anxiety and fatigueness. B-12 promotes the circulation of oxygen through-out our cells and produces ideal red blood cells. When your body lacks B12 then your blood has a harder time reaching all the organs and explains why you may like it’s hard to keep up with a conversation or you may just feel fatigue all the time. This vitamin fights brain atrophy and promotes neuron growth. This works exceptionally well when paired up with Omega-3 and taken consistently.
The last vitamin I recommend is Ginkgo Biloba which is known for its antioxidant contents and slows down the aging of organs. LIke the other vitamins I mentioned, Ginkgo Biloba improves circulation and heart health. Gingko protects the brain, heart and fights strokes and has been used to treat symptoms associated with Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive declines due to aging.
Basically these 3 vitamins will give your brain the nutrients it needs to generate new neurons and gives it the proper circulation to do so. It is important to remember that proper diet and exercise will GREATLY improve your brain and cognitive health as it helps your blood flow through-out your body.
I recommend finding out which vitamins and nutrients you are deficient in to see what vitamins best suit your needs! However Omega-3, B-12 and Ginkgo Biloba will all improve your brain’s cognitive health, improve memory and keep your heart healthy.
Note : Discuss with your doctor before starting any vitamins
