According to a study, here are 10 habits that can damage your brain:
1. No Breakfast
Those who do not eat breakfast have lower blood sugar levels, which consequently makes the nutrients supply to the brain becomes less.
2. Eat too much
Eating too much, moreover on foods with a high fat content, can result in hardening of blood vessels in the brain due to accumulation of fat in the blood vessel wall. Consequently the ability of the brain would decrease.
3. Smoke
Substances in cigarettes that inhaled will cause rapid shrinkage of the brain, and can lead to Alzheimer’s disease.
4. Consuming too much sugar
Consumption of too much sugar will cause a disturbance in the absorption of proteins and nutrients, causing nutritional imbalances that would interfere with brain development
5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air can reduce oxygen supply to the brain so it can decrease the efficiency of the brain.
6. Sleep Deprivation
The brain needs sleep as a time to rest and recover her abilities. Lack of sleep in the long term will accelerate the damage to brain cells.
7. Close your head while sleeping
Habit of sleeping with closed head increase the concentration of carbon dioxide and lower oxygen concentrations can cause effects on the brain damage.
8. Thinking too hard when ill
Working too hard or force to use our minds when we are sick can reduce the effectiveness of the brain and can damage the brain.
9. Less stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain. Lack of stimulation of the brain can make our brain shrink.
10. Rarely communicates
Communication is needed as one means of stimulate work ability of the brain. Communicate intellectually can trigger brain efficiency. Lack of intellectual ability to communicate will cause the brain to be poorly trained.
So, what are you waiting? Save our brains. Take good care of our brain as a priceless treasure.
