What food types enhance concentration and memory?? ( Besides beer and fast food- ha ha) I dont purchase organic food ( too expensive, and I belive its a bunch of b.s anyhow) in particular which types of fruits and veggies should I be eating that will enhance brain power- it needs all of the help it can get.. thanks!

Blueberries are great. Fish Oil as well.

However, the most underrated key to optimal brain function is strenuous exercise. Get down to the track and run some laps, hard, or do some similarly difficult aerobic activity. Your body will work on overdrive to get the blood flowing throughout your body, and this really wakes the brain up for most of the day. Also great for relieving stress. I ran the morning of the test this June and felt very little/no anxiety (well, except for with LG#4) and thought my brain was functioning much better than last time I tested.

This article on "Brain Food" from PowerScore was very helpful for me in planning my diet around game day: http://www.powerscore.com/lsat/help/brainfood.cfm

I work as a landscaper doing landscape maintainence 6 days a week, so physical training isnt that big of an issue. I was just wondering about caffine? Is it really that bad for remembering? ( I drink 2-3 cups in the am. and 1-2 in the p.m when I'm about to start studying)
