How Your Brain Function Can be Enhanced
The trouble is that many people have very little idea just how to go
about looking after their brains. This is the most previous piece of
equipment in the world – more powerful than infinite
supercomputers – but we tend to just ignore it and hope it all works
out okay.
In fact, a lot of the time, we unintentionally subject it to a fair
amount of abuse!
For starters, most of us eat entirely the wrong diet and this means
our body doesn’t have access to the raw materials it needs in order
to maintain optimum brain function. In the short term, this makes
us feel groggy and slow but in the long term, it can lead to
cumulative damage that results in neurological diseases and agerelated cognitive decline. That’s right: it’s not inevitable that you
should become forgetful and cantankerous as you get older!
The other problem is that most of us don’t use our brains enough.
We don’t challenge them, and we don’t train them. Due to a
phenomenon called ‘brain plasticity’, it is actually possible for us to
train and grow our brains just like a muscle. New neurons can be
created, and new connections can be formed and strengthened. This
all means that it’s possible for us to develop certain brain areas
beyond others and actually enhance our abilities as a result.
