(ORDO NEWS) — We get older, and the brain itself slowly “dries out”. This is a natural process. But, alas, a person tends to rush natural changes, adding problems to himself along with a decrease in brain volume.
Chronic back pain. This relationship has been experimentally confirmed and officially documented by experts at Northwestern University. Due to constant pain, the brain can lose up to 11% of its volume.
Alcohol and marijuana. They actively suppress the work of the cerebellum and hippocampus, which seriously impairs memory and spatial orientation. Losses – up to 10 percent.
Internet overdose. According to Chinese experts, published in Scientific American, Internet addiction cuts some parts of the brain by 10-20 percent.
Lack of sleep, especially chronic, negatively affects the brain, and this, in turn, deprives a person of sleep. The vicious circle will be broken only by treatment and the correct organization of sleep and wakefulness.
Deficiency of sunlight – proven in mice, but the analogy is transparent. Yes, and depression during the dark seasons shows that the brain suffers from a lack of light.
A vegetarian diet deprives the body of vitamin B12, which comes only from animal foods. The result is brain pathology.
