Three Tips for Improving Your Brain Health
The human brain is the command center for the human nervous system. It receives input from the sensory organs and sends output to the muscles and all the organs. The human brain has the same basic structure as other mammalian brains, but is larger in relation to body size than any other brains. It weighs about 3.3 lbs. (1.5 kilograms). The brain makes up about 2 percent of a human's body weight. Despite this, even at rest, the brain consumes 20% of the body's energy, about 327 calories per day! The brain consumes energy at 10 times the rate of the rest of the body per gram of tissue. The average power consumption of a typical adult is 100 Watts and the brain consumes 20% of this making the power of the brain 20 Watts, enough to light a light bulb!
So, what are some tips to take care of this amazing organ?
Take Care of Your Heart to Take Care of Your Memory
Over the past few years it’s become common knowledge that even though the brain makes up a small percentage of your body weight, it requires twenty percent of your blood supply to operate correctly. As a result, the performance of your heart, the organ that pumps oxygen rich blood throughout the body, is vital to optimizing your brain health and memory.
