Last weekend while at my second job, I started looking up refreshing drinks that my friends and I can have for our own little cocktail after hour’s party. And in my true form, I found myself getting side tracked with all these different types of recipes with foods to help improve your concentration. No denying over time with age, our bodies begins to age right along with us. Just like anything else, our brain will need a little fine tuning here and here. Besides, who wouldn’t want to add a little smart food to their diets?
