In this moment, professor and neuroscientist, Wendy Suzuki outlines how to destroy your brain. Many of the ways to wreck your brain health are obvious, such as poor sleep, smoking, eating a processed diet and no exercise. However, some brain damaging habit are more subtle, including not learning and using social media. Wendy says that the increased use of social media is a massive concern for how it will impact the younger generation. This is because their brains aren’t getting the benefits of real social connection and can suffer from increases in depression and anxiety, leading to the release of stress hormones which damage the brains cells and connections.

  • What would I have to do to destroy my brain?

  • So no sleep.

  • I'm gonna be sedentary.

  • Yeah.

  • I'm gonna have no friends.

  • Yeah.

  • And smoking.

  • Smoking is very bad for your health and your brain.

  • Okay.

  • Alcohol.

  • Alcohol.

  • I mean, yes.

  • Long term alcohol can cause significant and named brain diseases.

  • Moderation.

  • Even moderation now studies have shown, is not very good.

  • And the reason why it's not good is that alcohol disrupts your sleep.

  • Even though people drink it to go to sleep faster, the sleep is much more superficial and is not deep, and it's not the healthy sleep.

  • So that is not good overall for sleep depth and health, and therefore brain health.

  • I'm gonna eat a processed diet to hurt my brain, and I'm not gonna have a lifestyle that is novel because we talked about learning, right?

  • Yes.
