மூளையைப் பாதிக்கும் பழக்கங்கள்

1. காலையில் உணவு உண்ணாமல் இருப்பது: காலையில் உணவு உண்ணாமல் இருப்பவர் களுக்கு ரத்தத்தில் குறைவான அளவே சர்க்கரை இருக்கும். இது மூளைக்குத் தேவையான சக்தியையும் தேவையான ஊட்டச்சத்துக்களையும் கொடுக்காமல், மூளை அழிவுக்குக் காரணமாகும்.

2. மிக அதிகமாகச் சாப்பிடுவது: இது மூளையில் இருக்கும் ரத்த நாளங்கள் இறுகக் காரணமாகி, மூளையின் சக்தி குறைவுக்குக் காரணமாகும்.

3. நிறைய சர்க்கரை சாப்பிடுதல்: இது புரோட்டின் நமது உடலில் சேர்வதைத் தடுக்கிறது. இதுவும் மூளை வளர்ச்சிக்கு பாதிப்பாகிறது.

4. தூக்கமின்மை : நல்ல தூக்கம் நம் மூளைக்கு ஓய்வு கொடுக்கும். நீண்டகாலம் தேவையான அளவு தூங்காமலிருப்பது மூளைக்கு பாதிப்பை ஏற்படுத்தும்.

5. மாசு நிறைந்த காற்று : மாசு நிறைந்த காற்றை சுவாசித்தல், நமக்குத் தேவையான ஆக்ஸிஜனை நாம் பெறுவதிலிருந்து தடை செய்கிறது. மூளைக்கு ஆக்ஸிஜன் செல்லாவிட்டால், மூளை பாதிப்படையும்.

6. புகை பிடித்தல் : மூளை சுருங்கவும், அல்ப்ஸமர்ஸ் வியாதி வருவதற்கும் காரணமாகிறது.

7. மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுக்கும் சிந்தனைகளை மேற்கொள்ளாமல் இருப்பது : மூளையை அதிகமாக உபயோகப்படுத்தும் சிந்தனைகளை மேற்கொள்வதால், மூளையில் புதுப்புது இணைப்புகள் உருவாகின்றன. அதனால், மூளை வலிமையான உறுப்பாக ஆகிறது.

8. தலையை மூடிக்கொண்டு தூங்குவது : தலையை மூடிக்கொண்டு தூங்குவது, போர்வைக்குள் கரியமிலவாயு அதிகரிக்க வைக்கிறது. இது நீங்கள், சுவாசிக்கும் ஆக்ஸிஜனை குறைக்கிறது. குறைவான ஆக்ஸிஜனை குறைக்கிறது. குறைவான ஆக்ஸிஜன் மூளையைப் பாதிக்கிறது.

9. நோயுற்ற காலத்தில் மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பது : உடல் நோயுற்ற காலத்தில் மிக அதிகமாக மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பதும், தீவிரமாகப் படிப்பதும் மூளையைப் பாதிக்கும். உடல் சரியாக ஆன பின்னால், மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பதே சிறந்தது.

10. பேசாமல் இருப்பது : அறிவுப்பூர்வமான உரையாடல்களை மேற்கொள்வது மூளையின் வலிமையை அதிகரிக்கிறது.
