Brain Damaging Habits
Your brain is an important part of your body. It is one of the largest organs and is the main control center for every function that happens in your day-to-day life.
The brain is also surprisingly delicate. In recent years, the World Health Organization released what they consider to be the top 10 brain-damaging habits that are common among people today.
Top 10 Brain Damaging Habits
According to the World Health Organization following are such habits that will damage your brain severely:
- No Breakfast
- Overreacting
- Smoking
- High Sugar Consumption
- Sleep Deprivation
- Head covered while sleeping
- Working your brain during illness

Get A Second OpinionNo Breakfast:
People who do not have breakfast will have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.
Overreacting:
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.
Smoking:
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer's disease.
High Sugar Consumption:
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients, causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.
Sleep Deprivation:
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in the body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, reducing brain efficiency.
Head covered while sleeping:
Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decreases the concentration of oxygen which may lead to brain-damaging effects.
Working your brain during illness:
Working hard or studying while sick may lead to a decrease in the effectiveness of the brain.
Lacking stimulating thoughts:
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, but lacking brain stimulation, thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.
Talking Rarely:
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain.

Not getting enough oxygen is really bad for brain cells. It can happen when someone is drowning, choking, or experiencing a severe medical condition like a stroke.
To help your brain make new cells, try doing healthy things like exercising and doing activities that help you relax. Also, protect your old brain cells by not smoking, not drinking too much alcohol, and taking care of health problems like high blood pressure and feeling down.
What you eat really affects your brain health. Eating lots of sugary, fatty, and processed foods can make it harder to remember things and learn new stuff. It can also raise your chances of getting diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia.
