What we eat affects the brain chemicals. This change in the brain chemistry than influences our mood, behavior, the thought processes and the emotional reactions.

Also, when you bond with your baby, you provide him with love and security that brings about brain connections. Your kid’s brain growth is dynamic. It does not stand... Read More
