TT: The #1 Nutrient for Boosting Brain Power & BDNF

Boosting brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is crucial for brain health, especially as we age when BDNF production decreases.

While there are various foods and supplements that can help with this, on today’s show I want to share with you some research that highlights one of the top ways that you can enhance brain function by improving BDNF.

Tune into today’s #CabralConcept 2778 where I go over what the #1 nutrient is for boosting brain power and increasing BDNF – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. Why is BDNF Important

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is vital for supporting the growth, maintenance, and survival of neurons, which are crucial for cognition and memory.

2. What Nutrients Did the Research Focus On

The research study examined the effects of whole coffee fruit extract, green coffee caffeine powder, grape seed extract, and green coffee bean powder on BDNF levels.

3. What Did the Research Reveal

The research demonstrated that whole coffee fruit extract significantly increased plasma BDNF levels by 137%. In comparison, the group taking green coffee bean powder showed a 43% increase, and the grape seed extract group showed a 38% increase.
