World Brain Day 2025: Our brain is the most important part of our body. It only works to think, understand, remember, control the mood, walk and run every part of the body. If the mind stops working properly, then our power, feelings and physical actions are all disturbed. But due to today’s run -of -the -mill life, poor eating, stress, lack of sleep and low running of the body, the brain has started to be affected. We also realize this when a problem increases.
What is the work of the brain?- The brain is made up of millions of nerve cells (neurons) that send and receive signals very fast. These messages are both electrical and chemical. Whenever we see something, listen, smell or touch, our body’s sense organs bring that information to the mind. Then the brain processes that information and decides what we should do now.
Early symptoms of brain health
Neurosurgeon Dr. Praveen Gupta It is said that when the mind does not work properly, then there are some initial symptoms that we often ignore. For example, forgetting small things, talking while talking, it is difficult to focus or feel heavy at all times. Changing the mood again and again, deterioration of sleep or confusion in daily works can also be a sign of this. Sometimes it happens that we forget to do some easy work or do not understand what we are doing. If this is happening again and again, it can be a matter of concern. Lack of nutrition, high stress or dementia can be a serious disease behind this.
What reasons do the condition of the brain deteriorate?
There can be many reasons for brain health deteriorating. Such as aging, head injury, prolonged stress, eating fast food and nutrition -deficient food, smoking cigarettes or drinking alcohol, not exercising at all and not taking sleep. Apart from this, diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity can also harm the brain gradually.
Easy ways to keep the mind healthy
But the good thing is that if we adopt some easy habits at the right time, then we can keep the mind sharp and healthy. For example, every day walking a little, eating nutritious food that contains fish, dry fruits, green vegetables and fruits, taking 7-8 hours of sleep every night, reading books like brain sports, playing chess or learning new things. Also, spending time in yoga, meditation or open air can be beneficial to reduce stress. The more you stay away from alcohol and cigarette, the better the mind will do.
