M&S Brain Food is Rich in Omega-3, Iron, Zinc and More

Health-conscious consumers who made New Year's resolutions related to eating brain-boosting foods for better focus and memory will find tons of support from the freshly launched M&S Brain Food range.

M&S Food's campaign for this new health and wellness range spotlights the Brain Ball as the hero product in the lineup.

The complete Brain Food range offers plenty of other sweet and savory choices, such as a vitamin-rich Tropical Kefir Shot and a Smoked Salmon, Egg and Edamame Pot for grab-and-go eating.
