Good night
Getting a good night's sleep is one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve your memory and concentration. Aim to get at least 7-9 hours of sleep every night on a regular basis. According to the National Institutes of Health, sleep deprivation can reduce your learning ability by up to 40%.
Stress Management
One way to improve your concentration and memory is to stop being overly stressed. Stress can significantly affect your memory and ability to concentrate in a number of ways. A study published in the Journal of Learning Memory found that chronic stress can damage the part of the brain responsible for memory formation, leading to difficulty learning and memory formation.
Research also shows that stress can cause changes in the morphology of neurons responsible for information processing and inhibit the growth of neurons.
Eat a balanced diet
A study published by the National Academic Press found that consuming 50% or less of your body's food needs can significantly reduce your cognitive performance, especially when combined with forced exercise and sleep deprivation.
Do exercise
Exercise is one of the best ways to improve your memory and concentration. Make sure you get at least 30 minutes of physical activity most days of the week. Activities like walking, jogging, swimming or cycling can boost your brain health.
No junk food
A study published in the European Journal of Nutrition states that consuming ultra-processed foods may increase age-related cognitive decline.
Make sure you stay away from processed foods and snacks. Snacks are often high in unhealthy fats as well as sugar and processed ingredients that can negatively impact memory and cognitive function.
