- New Human Brain Connections Are Created Every Time to Form a Memory.
- There’s a virus that attacks human DNA making people less intelligent, impairing brain activity, learning, and memory.
- Your Human brain uses 20% of the total oxygen and blood in your body.
- When awake, the human brain produces enough electricity to power a small light bulb.
- Violent homes have the same effect on children’s brains as combat on soldiers.

- Yawning is the body’s way of cooling down an overheated Human brain. In addition, when your brain does not receive the appropriate amount of oxygen, the yawn is said to provide the remaining amount of oxygen to the brain. Anoxic brain damage is brain injury caused by a lack of oxygen supply. Without oxygen, brain cells will start to die after four to six minutes.
- Sleeping at night is considered the most ideal time for the Human brain. It appears to enhance the connection between nerve cells in the brain. The brain process is believed to support the basis of memory and learning. In a recent scientific study, it is revealed the brain consolidates all the learned memories from the whole day while sleeping at night.
