Your brain uses more energy (by weight) than any other organ in the body. Your 86 billion neurons each contain up to a million mitochondria, responsible for generating power to keep your thoughts and consciousness running. When things go wrong, we may be at higher risk for brain diseases. So how does this complex system work, and what might we be able to do to improve it? Dr. Austin Perlmutter explains.
For a comprehensive + user friendly take on brain energy, Dr. Chris Palmer's "Brain Energy" book is great! #metabolism #brainhealth #brain #neuroscience
