ALL ABOUT BRAIN

CPU controls the computer function and stores its information for future use, like processors doing the same work in the laptop. Let's move forward; the internet stores a lot of information and make the world a Global village (sores memories, regulates the function, and manages to load the organization). Likewise, The Brain is the CPU of the human body. It holds and operates the human body, stores and creates memories, acts as a communication center for the animal body.

The brain is the crucial organ of the animal kingdom. The brain is highly developed in the human body, performs special functions, and makes the foremost human creature of this universe. Brain consist of billions of neurons. The brain sends and receive body signals as nerve impulse and interpret it. Defect in the brain leads to many disorders includes Alzheimer's memory loss, strokes, etc. To understand the brain's importance in the human body, you must know the brain's structure, function, disease, symptoms, and cure.

Location of the brain in the human body:

The brain is present in the back part of the bony structure called the cranium. Cranium is the part of the skull. The skull protects the brain from injury without brain 5-newton force to damage the brain, but with the cranium 50, newton is the threshold force to damage the brain.
Structure of brain:
Brains look like wrinkled walnut because of Gyrification (the process in which the convolutions of the cerebral cortex form). The brain consists of billions of :

• neurons (to transmit and interpret signals)

• non-neuronal cells (neuroglia; to maintain brain health by providing nutrients to brain cells)

• Small blood vessels (capillaries; to supply blood)

• Water (brain consists of 60% of water; to lubricate and provide cushion to the brain and tissue).

Division of the Brain:

The brain is the highly developed organ of the human body. The brain classifies into division and subdivision (Parts, lobes, hemispheres). The three primary division of the brain are:

• Forebrain

• Midbrain

• Hindbrain

What is Cerebral Hemisphere?

The cerebrum is essential to the brain. The cerebrum cut into two hemispheres (left cerebral hemisphere and right cerebral hemisphere). 
These two parts of the hemisphere communicate through a band of axons called the Corpus callosum. Interestingly, the left cerebral hemisphere controls the right portion of the body, and the right cerebral hemisphere handles the left side of the body.

Disorders of the brain:

• The brain is an essential part of the human body. Some of the negligence of humans begin, or neuron degeneration leads to many damages in the brain. Top 10 brain disorders that persistently affect the human being.

• 
  Alzheimer's Disease

• Dementias

• Brain tumor

• Epilepsy

• Parkinson Disease

• TIA

• Brain hemorrhage

• Depression and anxiety

• Huntington's disease

• Tay Sachs disease

Common symptoms of the defect in the brain:

Some of the evident symptoms of the damaged brain are:

• Headache

• Mental tiredness

• Physical and mental fatigue

• Weakness

• Seizures

• Nausea and vomiting

• Lack of coordination in body functions

• Dizziness

• Paralysis

• Stress

• Depression 

• Anxiety

Treatment of defected brain.

There are few chances for damaged brain recovery. Brain-damaged recovery demands time and proper medical check-ups with appropriate diet and precautions. Some of the standard treatment prescribed for brain disorders are:

• CAT scans (to detect defective area)

• Physical therapy (Medical program to bring ambulation after brain injury.)

• Occupational therapy (treatment of patient through therapeutic use.)

• Speech and language therapy (It help people with the communication issue.)

• Psychological support (Recognize mental illness and help better in cure.)

• Rehabilitation (It enhance and restore the abilities of the person with brain damage.)

• Manage to control stress level

• Brain surgery (To remove and repair damaged tissue pf the brain)

Brain boosting diet.

• Brain growth and development are significant for kids. So, take care of their diets from a very young age to sharpen their creativity, life skills, and health. 10 best food for brain growth and development for kids and elders are: Eggs (source of protein)

• Fish (source of vitamin and antioxidants)

• Green vegetables (source of folate, vitamins, and antioxidants)

• Fruits (Particular apple and oranges; they are rich in minerals and water content)

• Turmeric (source of curcumin and antioxidants)

• Pumpkin seeds (source of magnesium, iron, zinc, and copper)

• Nuts (Source of healthy fats, vitamins, and antioxidants)

• Dark chocolate (source of flavonoids, caffeine, and antioxidants)

• Green tea (source of L-theanine and caffeine)

• Whole Grains (Source of glucose, fibers, and vitamins)

Amazing brain facts:

• The adult brain weighs about 3 pounds.

• The human brain will triple its size during the first year of birth.

• The brain continues to grow till the age of 18.

• The human brain gets smaller as you get older.

• The human brain can't feel pain; it interprets pain signals.

Healthy brain lifestyle.

Old says:

"Early to bed, early to rise.
Make a man healthy, wealthy, and wise."

A sound body has a rational brain. So, take care of your healthy, maintain a healthy lifestyle. Here are some lifestyle tips for a healthy brain

• Take proper sleep

• Do exercise regularly

• Be hydrated

• Eat a healthy diet (include nuts, fruits, whole grains, vegetables, juices, etc.)

People at risk of brain disorders:

People are at risk of brain disorders who have the family issue of brain tumors. Those who use alcohol and other chemical drugs. Those who spend stressful or traumatic life as well as those who have traumatic surgery before. 

What to do to avoid brain disorders:

• Never awake late at night

• Drink plenty of water

• Live active life

• Avoid chemical drugs, tobacco, narcotics, alcohol.

• Do exercise, yoga, morning walk, etc.

• Avoid too much use of digital screens.

• Manage your stress level.
