A brief overview of the brain

A brief overview of the brain      The human brain is a highly complex organ, made of countless neurons and fibers; white matter and gray matter; lobes and glands. These structural components give the brain its form, but the way they connect with each other gives the brain its function. Until recently, scientists could only really study one aspect (structure or function) of the brain at a time. But now, scientists from several disciplines have worked together to study brain structure and function simultaneously and offer a new atlas for studying the whole brain at once. A new study published in Scientific Reports combines the best of several disciplines: neuroscience, image processing, and network theory. Researchers evaluated the brains of healthy adults to analyze the brain’s structural components and their functional activities. Diffusion images provided information about structural connections and functional magnetic resonance images provided information about resti

Avoid some of the Main Brain Damaging Habits

Avoid some of the Main Brain Damaging Habits              In our daily lives we carry out a set of negative habits that affect our health and our minds in particular. Here are some habits that should be avoided. 1. No Breakfast – People who don’t eat breakfast have lower blood sugar levels. This can lead to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain (and to underperformance in terms of thinking, processing, retrieval and memory skills). 2. Overreacting – This can flood the brain with chemical which interferes with clear thinking, logical analysis and memory. 3. Smoking – This can cause a shrinkage in the brain, and possibly lead to Alzheimer’s disease. 4. High Sugar Consumption – Consuming too much sugar interferes with the absorption of proteins and nutrients. These are essential for healthy brain development. 5. Air Pollution – The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain. Again
