Literal Food for Thought


Did you know that the average lighting bolt is hotter than the sun’s surface? How’s that for brain food?


That’s what you’ll find in the Urban Dictionary when you look up the definition of “brain food.” The term is sometimes used to describe how new information or stories may stimulate or wow the brain.


You may find the literal definition of the term to be actual food for thought. The foods that we eat and don’t eat affect our brains. Twenty percent of the body’s energy is used up by the brain in a typical adult, in both wake and resting states. That high cost of energy usage of the brain is responsible for sustaining it even when you’re sleeping. This organ is arguably the most important in our body.
