Curiosities of the Brain

How diverse neurons are?

There are about 10 000 types of neurons.
Are physical exercises improving the Brain?

Physical fitness results in a better metabolic situation for the brain.
Should you make the Brain drunk?

Very low doses can have the positive effect of reducing damage caused by mental or emotional stress and can actually improve response times. In sustained high doses alcohol “shrinks” the brain that results in cognitive impairment. Foetal alcohol exposure has multiple bad effects on infant brain development and represents a leading cause of mental retardation.
