This is also an e-mail I received. DO you think these statements are true and are BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS? If it is is there are way to prevent this things from happening. In this day and age you have to work very hard and if you do you tend to go to work early without breakfast, you loose sleep, be exposed to smokers and pollution. Do you think we can avoid these? Let me know your thoughts? 1. No Breakfast People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration. 2. Overeating It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power. 3. Smoking It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease. 4. High Sugar consumption Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development. 5. Air Pollution The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency. 6. Sleep Deprivation Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells. 7. Head covered while sleeping Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects. 8. Working your brain during illness Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain. 9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage. 10. Talking Rarely Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain

Thanks for the very informative statements. I agree, these statements could really damage the brain. I think there are times when doing these brain damaging habits are unavoidable. I suggest trying to just enjoy what you are doing and try to have enough rest for our body and our brain.

Yes, I do I read that when you wake up in the morning you've been fasting, 'cause after all, you havent eat in 8 or 9 hours, and if you dont feed yourself short time after waiking up, then later your body will ask for more than you need so you can feel satisfied. Quite a nice list you got up there... Happy MyLotting! Xp
