Brain booster

Brain power (by avoiding brain spikes due to blood sugar levels) is best achieved by eating more acidic foods such as natural (not synthetic) vinegar. Adding only four tsp of vinegar to a meal depresses blood sugar by 30 percent. And, good news for diabetes and potato lovers. Mixing one tsp of vinegar with potatoes lowers glycemic index. Include lemon juice, orange and grape juice, apple cider, red wine vinegar and natural vinegar to your meals. Yoghurt may also help control blood sugar but not as dramatic as vinegar.
