The brain is one of the most complex and largest organ in the human body. It consists of more than 100 billion nerves and is made up of the cerebrum, the brain stem and the cerebellum which controls most of the activities of the body. Of course, the brain is divided into three basic units which are the forebrain, mid-brain and the hindbrain. The brain controls thoughts, memory emotions, touch, vision, breathing temperature, hunger, motor skills among others.

Facts about the human brain

Let's discover just how powerful the brain is with the appealing facts below:

• The human brain is made up of sixty percent fat: Yeah that's true, the fatty acids enhance our brain's performance.

• The human brain is not fully formed until 25 years of age: Smiles, little wonder our teenagers between the ages of 17-23 are prone to making wrong decisions. I am only kidding though, I beg your pardon no one should sue me to court.

• The human brain has the greatest storage capacity: This is very true as our brain is virtually unlimited in nature. This means that our brains storage space can never get filled.

• The brain information migrates up to 268 miles per hour: Our brain information travels from cell to cell. Therefore, any hindrance in this process can cause an epileptic seizure. So bad !

• The spinal cord is the most important source of communication between our body and brain: Actually, the brain gets information through our spinal cord which sends signal to it.

• At an average, the spinal cord stops growing at the age of four.

• It is not true that we use only ten percent of our brain: Infact, we are made to know that our brain is always very active even when we are asleep.

• Our brain can generate about 23 watts of power and this is enough to power a light bulb: Amazing, the power our brain generates helps to equate sleep and maintain our brain passage.

Enlightening, isn't it?? She deserves a clap.Of course, our brain carries out multiple tasks , this is just a tip of the iceberg, we can research for more brainstorming facts.

Let me go and take a nap, see you later bye.
