Brain Bulletin #33 - How to Make a Brain Dumb How would you make a rat baby dumb? Japanese researchers set out to answer this question. The scientists rounded up 2 groups of pregnant rats. Group one was given a diet adequate in omega-3 fatty acids. Group 2 was given a diet deficient in omega-3 fatty acids. Two months after the baby rats were born they were given learning tests. Group 1, the fish oil rich diet group, did great. 100% learned a task after only 3 tries. Group 2 did not do well. Only 35% of them could learn the task....even after 20 tries!Conclusion: one way to limit the learning ability of young rats...deprive them of brain-building DHA. In Japan, health authorities don't take brain health lightly. DHA is very important for bright, functioning brains. The Japanese fortify many foods with DHA. I try to eat fish 3 times a week. I also take a fish supplement. Take care of your brain. People with good brains make good students, parents, leaders, etc.I read a great article in the next Brain Bulletin I will share it with you Remember: "You are a genius", To purchase brain stuff click here To receive the Brain Bulletin FREE click here To register for Terry's Seminars click here This FREE Brain Bulletin goes out to over 21,000 brains. |
