You’ll here a LOT of noise about how your meals should be high in fat because “the brain is made out of fat”. Yes, it is made of significant amount of fat, but you don’t have to FOCUS on eating fat. A balanced dietary pattern having a mix of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, seeds, legumes and sources of omega-3 polyunsaturated fats is what seems to be best for brain health both short-term and long-term. This hyper-focus on eating primarily fatty foods for brain health is not based on any objective evidence.
