Believe your phone is intelligent? Think again.
Because you, my friend, possess a supercomputer in your head—one known as the brain—and guess what?
It is banana-powered. Yes, bananas.
Why Is the Brain So Cool?
Human brains have 86 billion neurons (86 followed by nine zeros!), and each of them fires off messages at lightning speed—faster than most Wi-Fi connections.
It controls your mind, your imagination, your jokes, your maths phobia. Everything! And it does so while only taking the same amount of electricity as a 10-watt bulb. That's right—your brain is literally more efficient and smarter than any man-made AI ever invented.
Hold up, What's with the Bananas?
Bananas are packed with potassium, which aids the flow of electric impulses via those billions of neurons. Right—you're not just eating a fruit, but you're fuelling your brain. With every banana bite, you are actually eating brain fuel!
So the next time you are reading and somebody says to you, "Have a snack," eliminate the garbage food and reach out for nature's yellow power pack.
Fun Fact Overload:
Your brain produces more electrical impulses in a day than all the phones in the whole world.
You can live without a kidney, even a lung, but without your brain stem (it controls the breathing, heartbeat, and all the autopilot functions).
When you're dreaming, your brain does more work than when you're awake. That's why your dreams seem wacky!
Knowing how cool your brain is causes you to guard it:
Eat smart (bananas, nuts, berries!)
Sleep well (your brain cleans itself when you sleep)
Exercise (supplies oxygen to that grey matter)
And chill (tension slows your mind down!)
So while others are charging their phones and upgrading laptops, you remember: You already have the most sophisticated technology in the entire known universe—right in your head. Treat it well. Feed it facts. And let it power the world—one genius idea at a time.
