IT'S GOOD TO KNOW

JUST A HANDFUL OF INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT YOUR BRAIN

Your brain loves a healthy diet too, including nutrients, water, blood, and oxygen.
The adult brain typically weighs only around 3 pounds, and mainly water and fat.
Your brain and your mind are not the same. Your brain is the organ that your mind and body run on.
You use 100% of your brain all the time. The “only 10%” is a myth.
One of the reasons humans can think so quickly is because our brain signals can travel at around 268 miles per hour.
Unlike computers, your brain’s storage capacity is believed to be unlimited.
Your brain can generate enough electricity to power a small light bulb.
Your brain is powerful. A single piece of brain tissue the size of a grain of sand contains 100,000 neurons and 1 billion synapses.
Your brain uses about 20% of the water and oxygen in your body. Which is why hydration and cardio health are so important.
75% of your brain is water, and even a 2% deficiency can make your thinking feel foggy.
One of the most harmful things for your brain is stress because it can damage cells and slow down thinking. Stress is usually just a negative thinking pattern that you can control by….the way you think.
Your brain can shrink over time, as it loses cells. But it can make more of itself through something called neurogenesis, a process best triggered by intense aerobic exercise.
Some neuroscientists believe that you can completely change your personality just by changing the way that you think.
Stressful breathing sends negative signals to your brain, triggering a lot of unnecessary damage over time. That’s why controlled breathing is so essential and healthy.
The main reason human brains became the most advanced on the planet is our ability to constantly run “what if” scenarios, being constantly curious about how we could achieve seemingly unachievable goals.
One of the best ways to keep your brain strong and healthy for as long as possible is learning. And ideally by learning new and complex things.
