When you reduce the fat intake in your food, brain function will become dull, then you start feeling lethargic and slowly it may lead to anxiety, depression, and Alzheimer etc.
To avoid such problems, eat food which has Omega 3 fatty acids in it as they are nutrients to your brain. When body generates free radicals, Omega 3 fatty acids will fight with them and develops resistance power in human body.
