Soybeans

Soybeans and products such as tofu and soy milk are high in lecithin, an important nutrient for the brain.

Lecithin plays an important role in maintaining cell structure and function in the brain and has a significant impact on memory and learning ability. Lecithin may have a positive effect in preventing cognitive decline.

Therefore, consuming lecithin-rich foods through diet helps slow down this process and maintain brain health.

Compared with animal food sources, soy lecithin is not only abundant in content but also contains other components that are beneficial to the cardiovascular system such as unsaturated fatty acids.

Considering the special needs of the elderly regarding lipid metabolism, soy products are particularly suitable for daily consumption.

For example, a cup of soy milk or a small piece of tofu a day can provide the brain with the lecithin it needs while avoiding too much saturated fat.

Soy products should be combined with foods rich in vitamin E such as nuts, salad with a handful of almonds.

Egg

Lecithin is particularly abundant in egg yolks. This natural lecithin is easily absorbed by the body. Regular consumption of lecithin-rich foods may reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease.

When choosing eggs, freshness and quality are of the utmost importance. Fresh eggs have plump yolks, clear whites and no distinctive odor.

Eating boiled eggs is safest. In addition, eggs can enhance their nutritional value when combined with other foods. For example, eating eggs with vegetables rich in vitamin C such as tomatoes is not only more delicious but also meets comprehensive nutritional needs.

In general, adults can eat one egg a day to meet lecithin needs. For special groups, such as patients with high cholesterol, it is necessary to follow the doctor's instructions.
