it’s about brain hacks can you make your brain work better than it already does

brain work better than it already does

brain work better than it already does the first brain hack is amazingly sleep

the first brain hack is amazingly sleep

the first brain hack is amazingly sleep now sleep is one of the most dangerous

now sleep is one of the most dangerous

now sleep is one of the most dangerous things we do we are utterly vulnerable

things we do we are utterly vulnerable

things we do we are utterly vulnerable anybody can do anything to us we don’t

anybody can do anything to us we don’t

anybody can do anything to us we don’t even know whether we are going to wake

important yes a little bit of anatomy so

important yes a little bit of anatomy so we have a skull and in the skull there

we have a skull and in the skull there

we have a skull and in the skull there is a brain and that brain weighs around

is a brain and that brain weighs around

is a brain and that brain weighs around a kilo and a half approximately the

a kilo and a half approximately the

a kilo and a half approximately the brain is supplied blood by two arteries

brain is supplied blood by two arteries

brain is supplied blood by two arteries if you touch here you can feel them

if you touch here you can feel them

if you touch here you can feel them pulse go on do it yeah can you feel that

pulse go on do it yeah can you feel that

pulse go on do it yeah can you feel that pulse that’s the pulse of life that’s

pulse that’s the pulse of life that’s

pulse that’s the pulse of life that’s what’s keeping you alive yeah now just

what’s keeping you alive yeah now just

what’s keeping you alive yeah now just imagine two tubes one and a half kilos

imagine two tubes one and a half kilos

imagine two tubes one and a half kilos of weight on top it’s going to get

of weight on top it’s going to get

of weight on top it’s going to get squished you would be dead before you

squished you would be dead before you

squished you would be dead before you were born an anatomical problem right

were born an anatomical problem right

were born an anatomical problem right one angel who got an A in anatomy

one angel who got an A in anatomy

one angel who got an A in anatomy suggested a solution which was

suggested a solution which was

suggested a solution which was implemented

implemented

implemented she said float it just put some water

she said float it just put some water

she said float it just put some water and let it float and that’s what

and let it float and that’s what

and let it float and that’s what happened it’s called cerebrospinal fluid

happened it’s called cerebrospinal fluid

happened it’s called cerebrospinal fluid you can see the blue thing going around

you can see the blue thing going around

you can see the blue thing going around the brain there yes it’s called CSF

the brain there yes it’s called CSF

the brain there yes it’s called CSF cerebrospinal fluid and because of the

cerebrospinal fluid and because of the

cerebrospinal fluid and because of the cerebrospinal fluid your brain actually

cerebrospinal fluid your brain actually

cerebrospinal fluid your brain actually floats and weighs just 300 grams

floats and weighs just 300 grams

floats and weighs just 300 grams and everything is great and life goes on

and everything is great and life goes on

and everything is great and life goes on now the CSF is not only to float the

now the CSF is not only to float the

now the CSF is not only to float the brain the brain uses 20% of the energy

brain the brain uses 20% of the energy

brain the brain uses 20% of the energy of the body and that’s a lot you know

of the body and that’s a lot you know

of the body and that’s a lot you know while you are talking listening to me

while you are talking listening to me

while you are talking listening to me interacting doing the stuff of everyday

interacting doing the stuff of everyday

interacting doing the stuff of everyday things whatever we do the brain is using

things whatever we do the brain is using

things whatever we do the brain is using a hell of a lot of energy right and what

a hell of a lot of energy right and what

a hell of a lot of energy right and what is happening is that when energy is used

is happening is that when energy is used

is happening is that when energy is used a waste product is created that’s basic

a waste product is created that’s basic

a waste product is created that’s basic chemistry right the waste product of the

chemistry right the waste product of the

chemistry right the waste product of the brain is called beta-amyloid which is

brain is called beta-amyloid which is

brain is called beta-amyloid which is just a very fancy way of saying brain

just a very fancy way of saying brain

just a very fancy way of saying brain and you don’t want a brain full of

and you don’t want a brain full of

and you don’t want a brain full of do you right this brain is

do you right this brain is

do you right this brain is particularly toxic because it has been

particularly toxic because it has been

particularly toxic because it has been linked with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s

linked with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s

linked with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s so it’s very important that it gets

so it’s very important that it gets

so it’s very important that it gets flushed out and that’s what the CSF does

flushed out and that’s what the CSF does

flushed out and that’s what the CSF does it goes in and cleans it up it goes in

it goes in and cleans it up it goes in

it goes in and cleans it up it goes in and cleans it up and this is happening

and cleans it up and this is happening

and cleans it up and this is happening the whole day but there is a lot of zing

the whole day but there is a lot of zing

the whole day but there is a lot of zing going on in your brain there’s a lot of

going on in your brain there’s a lot of

going on in your brain there’s a lot of electricity there is a lot of chemical

electricity there is a lot of chemical

electricity there is a lot of chemical reactions going on in your brain every

reactions going on in your brain every

reactions going on in your brain every second

second

second and so the CSF cannot go all the way in

and so the CSF cannot go all the way in

and so the CSF cannot go all the way in and that’s where sleep comes when you

and that’s where sleep comes when you

and that’s where sleep comes when you sleep the interstitial spaces in the

sleep the interstitial spaces in the

sleep the interstitial spaces in the brain that the spaces between the

brain that the spaces between the

brain that the spaces between the tissues in the brain they actually

tissues in the brain they actually

tissues in the brain they actually become bigger increased by 60% and the

become bigger increased by 60% and the

become bigger increased by 60% and the CSF goes in there and cleans it up and

CSF goes in there and cleans it up and

CSF goes in there and cleans it up and that’s why when you get up in the

that’s why when you get up in the

that’s why when you get up in the morning after a good night’s sleep you

morning after a good night’s sleep you

morning after a good night’s sleep you say I’m feeling so fresh yes someone

say I’m feeling so fresh yes someone

say I’m feeling so fresh yes someone flushed
