If you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it a hundred times: you are what you eat. We want our bodies to be super, and if there’s one food that being touted at the latest “superfood” it’s the leafy, vitamin-packed roughage kale.
Naturally high in antioxidants, kale may help 
guard against heart disease, with its high fiber content working to help lower cholesterol. Rich in Vitamin A (beta-carotene), kale can also help the workings of the immune system, and may even help boost brain functionality.
In the latest issue of New York Magazine, in an article about kale, Dr. Drew Ramsey, an assistant professor at Columbia University explains, “Your brain makes up 2 percent of your body weight, but it consumes 20 percent of everything you eat. By changing your food, you change genetic expression and actually change the way your brain functions.”
If you really are what you eat, don’t you want to be smart?
