It is known that the brain controls our food, breathing, sleep and the ability to think, fall in love and discuss, but unfortunately there are some habits that may seem harmless at first glance, but they destroy it and prevent it from working fully, according to aging scientists.


The Russian media quoted the geriatrics Dr. Vladimir Khavinson and Dr. Svetlana Trofimova as saying that most of our daily habits negatively affect the brain.


What are the things that cause the most brain damage?




1- sleep

The two doctors point out that sleeping eight hours a day is to prevent neurodegenerative diseases of the brain and people who sleep less are more at risk of accelerated aging and poor brain function.



2 - water

A person must drink at least 15 liters of pure water, because water makes up 80% of the brain, and water helps to improve the work of cells. Drinking a glass of water half an hour before eating a meal is a good and beneficial habit, and drinking small amounts of water negatively affects On health in general.



3- Drinking tea with sugar with sweets

The high level of sugar in the blood suppresses the functions of the pancreas and can stimulate the development of diabetes because under the influence of sugar a large number of free radicals appear in the body that can damage the structure of the brain and transmit nerve impulses, and according to the recommendations of the World Health Organization, a person should not consume more than six tablespoons small amount of sugar a day.



4- Using headphones

Noise negatively affects the brain because loud sound damages the auditory receptors associated with the brain, let alone focusing the sound directly on the ears.



5- Stress and nervousness for trivial reasons

According to Dr. Vladimir Khavinson, the most important personality traits are indulgence and tolerance because cortisol, the stress hormone, destroys us.



6- Lack of movement and sports

A sedentary lifestyle also damages the brain, because when exercising, special substances are created in the muscles that help in the synthesis of neurotrophic factors in the brain, which in turn contribute to the acceleration of the transmission of nerve impulses and the brain works better when we exercise.



7- Not eating breakfast

It is preferable to eat breakfast within 15 hours after waking up, for example, oatmeal porridge contains a high percentage of zinc and the amino acid tryptophan, which makes up melatonin.
