Why Food for the Brain
A charity built to help you
protect
your brain — with science you can use.
Food for the Brain brings together cognitive testing, biomarker insights, and evidence-based programmes so you can understand your brain health today and take meaningful action for the decades ahead. Everything here is designed to turn research into steps you can actually follow.
Know where you stand
Take our free, validated Cognitive Function Test in about 15 minutes and see how your memory, speed, and executive function compare — with a clear baseline to track over time.
Act on real evidence
FFB translates peer-reviewed research — from B vitamins and omega-3 to homocysteine and lifestyle — into practical steps you can use, not generic wellness advice.
Find your path
Whether you are worried about brain health, supporting a loved one, or optimising performance, guided journeys point you to the right tests, articles, and next actions.
Join a charity with purpose
As a UK registered charity since 2003, we put citizen science first: your participation helps build the evidence base on nutrition, cognition, and dementia prevention.

How it works
Three steps to lasting cognitive health
From baseline assessment to personalized intervention, a complete brain health journey backed by peer-reviewed science.
The evidence
"Alzheimer's is not an inevitable consequence of ageing. Evidence shows that nutrition, lifestyle, and timely intervention can alter the trajectory."
- Patrick Holford, Founder - Food for the Brain Foundation
73%
Reduction in brain atrophy rate for those with adequate omega-3 and B vitamin levels.

2030
Projected timeline where dementia affects 1 in 3 people globally without intervention.
"With an extensive family history of dementia I'd resigned myself to a sense of inevitability — then I found Food for the Brain and realised I could stack the odds through their research, wisdom and tools."
