Habits That Damage Our Brain

        Damaged Brain

1) No-Breakfast

Breakfast is really the most important meal in the whole day, but when you avoid it everyday, the blood sugar level gets spiked,irregular and low. After a night of sleep and no eating, you need food.Otherwise the brain will get no no nutrition and is easily damaged.

2) No Sleeping

No sleep for long period of time reduces healthy brain cells. Sleep repairs the whole body from stress and recovers every cell.

3) Too much Sugar 

The effects of glucose and other forms of sugar on the brain may be the most

profound in diabetes, a group of diseases in which high blood glucose levels

persist over prolonged period of time. Type 1 diabetes is a disease in which the immune system destroys the cells in pancreas that produce insulin, a hormone used by the body to keep blood glucose levels in check. Type 2 diabetes, caused  by dietary and other environmental factors, is a condition in which cells become overwhelmed by insulin and fail to properly respond;they become resistant to insulin.

4) Overeating 

This makes you gain weight, be obese, damages the stems in the brain and reduces the mental focus.

5) Smoking

The worst of all habit is here. It has many side effects but for the brain, it causes shrinkage and dementia related issues like Alzheimer's.

6) Covered Head During Sleep

It sounds weird but we need as much oxygen as we can get during the night, this limits you to breathe in the whole oxygen. Also you get more carbon dioxide this way.

7) Polluted Air

Air pollution has long been associated with health problems including respiratory ailments, asthma, and an increased risk of stroke. The researchers unearthed evidence that air pollution impacts brain structure and could cause a type of "silent" ischemic stroke which led to a blockage in the vessels that supply blood to the brain.

8) Working When ill

We all rush speeding, having too much things to do. We all work when we are sick, one thing or another. But this means the body is begging for rest.In such cases, staying away from work may be a good thing, especially if it allows time for recovery and creative distraction via other, non-work activities.

9) Alcohol

The problems of alcoholism are well known, such as memory disorders, liver disease, high blood pressure, muscle weakness, heart problems, anaemia, low immune function, disorders of the digestive system and pancreatic problems as well as depression, unemployment and family problems including child abuse. This brain damage increases the risk of abnormalities in mood and cognitive abilities, increases the risk of dementia and additionally binge drinkers have an increased risk of developing chronic alcoholism.

10) Stress

Stress can cause acute and chronic changes in certain brain areas which can cause long-term damage. Over-secretion of stress hormones most frequently impairs memory, but in a few cases can enhance it. In particular, the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and the amygdala are affected.
