The brain is one of the most astonishing and intricate parts of the human body.
Here are some strangely interesting facts about your gray matter
...
1.Your brain is extremely powerful...
The human brain is responsible for keeping your body running all day long. It not only helps people think and learn new things, but it also controls your movement and speech, too. The brain is part of the central nervous system and receives tons of information. Make some room in your brain for these surprising brain facts you need to know.
2.The brain itself can't feel pain..
Ever wonder how brain surgeons are able to perform surgeries on patients while they’re awake? A neurologist explains that even though the brain has layers of coverings and blood vessels that contain pain receptors, the brain itself has zero. When a person has a headache for example, it’s often thought of as pain stemming from the brain, but this is actually not the case. The muscles and skin surrounding the brain, however, can feel pain.
3.Your brain is greedy..
Your brain might account for only about 3 percent of your body weight, but it receives about 30 percent of the blood being pumped by your heart. This shows how much attention and support it requires in comparison to the other seemingly important areas of your body. “The brain is like a spoiled and demanding child, but yet it is extremely smart and efficient,” explains a neuropathologist. “It takes the brain about 1/10,000th of a second to respond to something and generate an action.”
4 .You actually do use most of your brain, most of the time..
This misconception came about because the brain is so adaptable that sometimes minor damage causes only subtle problems,”-explains a neuroscientist. “The fact is, most of your brain is constantly working—to sense, process, think, move, and even dream.” Even when you head to sleep at night, your brain is still hard at work.
5.Brain waves are even more active while you’re dreaming...
When you’re fast asleep, you might think that your brain is “shut off,” but it’s actually doing a whole lot more than when you’re walking, talking, eating, and thinking. “When awake, people utilize alpha and beta waves, which gives us day wakefulness,”- explains a certified family nurse practitioner “Sleep, however, especially in the initial stages, uses Theta activity, which is greater in amplitude than Beta.”
