We all know that studying, doing homework, and attending class are the essentials to getting good grades, but did you  also know that food can have an equal effect on your academic performance? Here are six delicious and beneficial foods to consume that will make you smarter this semester.

Pulling an all-nighter? Instead of grabbing a Red Bull which will make you feel groggy, dunk some whole wheat tortilla chips into salsa! The chili peppers will heat your body and keep your blood flowing giving you a burst of energy.

When you’re going over notes for an upcoming exam, drink a berry smoothie! Berries are loaded with antioxidants that can boost your memory. Maui Wowi, located in the Liberty Tree Mall, uses fresh fruit in their delectable smoothies.

A PB&J sandwich is the staple food of childhood nostalgia and the perfect thing to eat when you need motivation. The protein in the peanut butter and the carbs in the bread will kick you into high gear.
