Good Luck on Finals: Doubling Student Discount

Good luck on Finals, Armstrong Students!

We are doubling our student discount during the week of finals to help you power up your brain and perform at your best.

We have plenty of study space and Free Wifi, and we now offer specialty coffees and teas.

Brain Foods to Help You Ace Your Finals

First of all, FRUIT ranks high among the best foods you can eat for your brain. BLACKBERRIES, STRAWBERRIES, BANANAS, GRAPES, MANDARIN ORANGES, PINEAPPLE, PEACHES … The natural sugars offer clean energy so you don’t experience the ‘crash’ as you would with refined sugar. The fiber in fruit keeps you going longer and keeps your brain sharper.

GREEN TEA & COFFEE: Warm and soothing, both contain antioxidants and caffeine, which is good for the brain in moderation. We now have a variety of hot drinks for you to enjoy including coffees, teas, hot chocolate adn apple cider.

CHOCOLATE: Dark Chocolate is rich in antioxidants and improves focus and concentration. Milk Chocolate improves memory and reaction time.

NUTS: Peanuts, walnuts and almonds promote mental clarity and strong memory. They also have healthy fats that keep your energy levels up.

WHOLE GRAINS: Whole grains like the ones found in our cereals are excellent brain foods as they improve circulation and contain essential fibers and vitamins.

FLAX SEED: Flax contains ALA- a healthy fat that enables the cerebral cortex (which is responsible for processing sensory information and “staying sharp”) to function better.

SMART SNACKING CAN ENHANCE STUDYING.
Retain more information by getting two food groups into your snacks to balance the nutrients and keep your blood sugar levels stable. At La’ Berry you can combine a variety of nutrients to keep your brain focused.

LA’ BERRY POWER SNACK

Start with Vanilla Yogurt (High in fiber, low in refined sugar). Top with sliced Bananas, Blackberries and Strawberries to wake up your brain. Add Fruity Pebbles for whole grains and a sweet crunch that keeps you full. A spoonful of Walnuts will promote mental clarity and a boost of energy. Finally, sprinkle on some Chocolate to improve concentration and memory and a spoonful of Flax to ‘stay sharp’. Top with a Cherry or Whip Cream – you deserve it!
