How Much Brain Do We Use?


How can we only use a percent of our brain? Evidence shows we can use more.


Scientists and others in the psychological, sociological fields have asserted that humans use maybe 10 to 100 percent of our brain. Without getting all science geek about it there is an easier way of understanding what that means.

Your Senses, are incredible !!!

You might be surprised at the amazing things your various senses can accomplish.

Weird facts about Brain !!


Complex and poorly understood, the brain is what makes everything work properly. The body may be kept alive, but without the brain, a person can’t truly live. Here are some interesting and weird facts about the brain.

Sleeping a 15 minute nap is better than 20 ?

Create a habit of going to bed and waking up at the same time each day, even on weekends. This helps anchor your body clock to these times. Resisting the urge for a lie-in can pay dividends in alertness.
If you feel you haven't slept well, resist the urge to sleep in longer than normal; getting up on schedule keeps your body in its normal wake-up routine.

How long can you stay awake?

People can resist without sleeping enough time, but more than 11 days are fatal to them.

The easy experimental answer to this question is 264 hours (about 11 days).

How many smells you can remember?

Although the human sense of smell is feeble compared to that of many animals, it is still very acute. We can recognise thousands of different smells, and we are able to detect odours even in infinitesimal quantities.
