The Decieved: Awesome facts about our brain
we probably aren't aware of.
The brain!, Whenever I think I thank God for
adding this powerful machine to our body,
Read the facts below ...
- Human brain is larger than the brain of other
mammals, but it has the same general
structure. Think you know everything about
your own brain?
- 75% Water
Just like the rest of the body, human brain is
75% water. That’s why your brain becomes
fuzzy and slows down when you are
dehydrated, even before you get the actual
physical symptoms of thirst.
- Full of Thoughts
On average your brain has around 70,000
thoughts a day. Although many thoughts will
be repetitive, the number of thoughts your
brain processes daily is quite amazing.
- Network
Every time you have a thought your brain
builds or changes a neural network inside
your brain. Similar events trigger the same
neural paths inside your brain that leaves you
with similar feelings and experience.
- No Tickling
Ever tried to tickle yourself? It is not usual.
Your brain recognizes your touch so well that
you can’t surprise or tickle yourself with your
own touch(no wonder, whenever I pinch or hit
myself with my nails, I hardly.....
- Headache
Your brain can not feel any pain. It is the
nerves and the muscles that feel the pain.
So don’t blame your brain when you get that
headache.
- Miles Long
Your brain has lot of blood vessels. If
measured in length, the blood vessels can be
about 100,000 miles long.
- Auto connect
Ever yawned right after watching someone
yawn? It is because your brain has some
mirror neurons. These mirror neurons helps
you in connecting with others. In other
words, the mirror neurons enable your ability
to socialize.
- Stress kills
Stress can kill your brain cells. Stress can
overload your brain with hormones that are
intended only for only short-term, which in
turn can damage and kill your brain cells.
- Chemical Love
Oxytocin, a brain chemical makes you fall
love. It is released in your brain in large doses
when you fall in love or during and after giving
birth to help a mother bond with her child. Its
effect can last for several months.
- You Use it All
Ever heard the misconception that we only use
10% of our brain? Since every part of the brain
has a known function. You have been using
whole of your brain, not just 10%.
