There are a number of mental exercises to increase memory. In addition to these practises, there are a lot of food items to refresh brain. If you include these food items in your diet regularly, the memory will improve naturally.

Some of these food items are advised by my mom. Some are advised by my family doctor. And few others, I referred from internet. My reference are here jhealthy, sunwarrior, thebetterindia and ndtv. I always prefer seasonals and budget wise options. So I have mentioned some budget wise options in this list below.

Fruits : Blueberries, Strawberries, Gooseberries, Oranges and Avocado

Berries are good to improve memory. Berries are location specific. Gooseberries are commonly prevalent in India. They are really best and budget wise. Oranges are also good for memory. If Avocados are available cheaper and best in your place, you can include them too.

Fishes rich in Omega 3

It may be any kind of fish rich in Omega 3 Fatty Acids. Atlantic Salmon is the best. But Salmon is not commonly available in India. From Indian Fishes, Sardines (Chala Meen or Mathi), Tuna (Kilangan Meen or Choorai Meen) and Mackerel ( Kanangathai or Ayilai) are best in choice. They are cheaper too. If you do not like fish, you can prefer Fish Oil Tablets.
