6 habits that cause brain atrophy and brain cancer that need to be stopped immediately
(Baonghean.vn) - There are habits that seem harmless but have the potential to harm your health. Among them, there are habits that cause the body to age quickly, resulting in the destruction of nerves and brain tissue, affecting the brain's control function... Below are bad habits you should change to avoid damaging the brain.
 |
| One of the habits that many young people today have is often skipping breakfast. This not only affects the metabolism but also causes your memory to decline, leading to a loss of mood control. Not eating breakfast regularly can also cause hypoglycemia and make you not have enough energy to work during the day... Therefore, you need to correct this habit early to prevent the risk of damaging your brain. |
 |
| "Sweet tooth" lovers often experience anxiety, stress, memory loss... because sugar is not good for the brain. Accordingly, when you consume too much sugar, you are at high risk of metabolic syndrome and brain diseases. It even inhibits the production of beneficial chemicals in the brain and affects brain function. |
 |
| Although seemingly harmless, the habit of drinking little water during the day can also be the cause of reduced brain tissue activity. Dehydration will cause the body to consume a lot of energy, affect your mood and cause you to lose concentration frequently. Therefore, you should pay attention to drink enough about 2 liters of water per day to avoid affecting your brain. |
 |
| Eating too much will make your body feel tired and your brain. Toxins in the process of decomposing undigested food can damage the central nervous system, making thinking slower, both IQ and EQ decrease. In addition, eating too much often also causes the brain to produce a type of cell that causes cerebral arteriosclerosis. This causes the brain to lack oxygen and essential nutrients, making reactions slower, processing information worse, and memory loss. |
 |
| When you do not get enough sleep of 7-8 hours every day, your brain will function less flexibly. It even affects your senses and reflexes during the day; staying up late regularly will also reduce your physical and mental health. The body does not rest enough, causing the function of the frontal lobe to decrease, affecting thinking... In addition, not getting enough sleep also produces a lot of the hormone cortisol - affecting the brain's ability to judge and solve problems. |
 |
| One daily habit that affects the brain is using mobile phones too much. At night, the brain is very confused by the blue light emitted from the phone. This causes the brain to stop producing melatonin, an endogenous hormone in the body, produced from the pineal gland - it plays an important role in regulating the body's biological rhythm of sleep and wakefulness, ensuring the body has a good night's sleep and wakes up refreshed the next day. |
