Re: Eating Berries Might Help Preserve Your Memory

Berries are great for the brain, and I agree with Rhonda's suggestions. (I also love the comic!)
Chemo actually does damage neurons, which is something that many (most?) women are not told prior to treatment. However, neurons can be repaired over time. Other helpful brain-repair items are co-Q 10, NAC (N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine), and a healthier dose of B vitamins than most people get from foods. Most of our foods travel far from where they're farmed - so by the time we get them, they are not as nutrient-dense as they were when picked. B vitamins are very important for brain health and other body functions.
