Peanuts aren’t just an easy snack for a ballgame or a road trip — they also can improve brain function and memory, Dutch researchers said earlier this month.
Eating around 60 unsalted, skin-roasted peanuts each day over the course of four months was found to be effective at increasing blood flow to the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain – known as “global cerebral blood flow” – and promoting the ability to remember information that is spoken aloud or written, according to doctors at Maastricht University Medical Center.
