COMON HABITS THAT DESTROY STUDENTS’ BRAINS

  1. Loud Music

    An approach to rest and unwind the day is by listening to music. However, you risk ruining your hearing if you play loud music over your headphones.

    Researchers say that those suffering from hearing loss are more susceptible to Alzheimer disease. Loud music that blasts your ears destroys your brain nerves.

  2. Sleep Deprivation 

    When you sleep your brain creates pathways between nerve cells (neurons) that aid in the retention of newly learned knowledge.

    Lack of sleep wears out your brain, making it less able to perform its duties.

    Your brain needs time to unwind and recover from the previous day.

    Serious issues like memory loss, cognitive deterioration, and mood changes might result from this.

    In fact, several researches indicate that getting too little sleep may make dementia more likely.

     Get at least seven hours of sleep each night if you want to protect your brain.

  3. Smoking

    Another terrible habit that can damage your brain is smoking. It impairs your general health as well as the health of your brain.

    Smoking results in multiple brain shrinkages and could induce Alzheimer.

    According to scientists, smoking can result in chronic inflammation, blood vessel damage, and cognitive deterioration.

    Additionally, loss of mental capacity is twice as likely to occur in smokers.

  4. High Sugar consumption

    A diet high in sugar might hinder the body’s ability to absorb nutrients and proteins, leading to malnutrition and possibly affecting how the brain develops.

    Compared to other body parts, the brain consumes the most energy. Too much sugar in the brain leads to reduced self-control and impaired cognitive function

  5. Too much time spent in the dark

    Your brain needs appropriate exposure to sunlight to function properly. Too much time spent in the dark may result in issues like depression.

    Be sure to obtain enough sunlight each day if you want to maintain the health of your brain. Occasionally go in the open to busk in the sun.

  6. Poor diet

    Neurons, the brain cells, are impacted by the food you eat.

    A poor diet high in fats and carbohydrates damages the brain’s neurons by causing inflammation and prevents the growth of new ones.

    Poor diet may influence how the brain functions and play a role in mental illnesses like depression.

  7. Overeating

    Overeating is a behavior that can be harmful to your brain. Too much eating leads to memory loss and cognitive deterioration.

    Scientists are still investigating the precise connection between obesity and mental deterioration. Eating a balanced diet in right portions will safeguard your brain.
